Hi All, This may be a silly question, but since I've never done it, I should ask. I'm considering restringing just the capo sections on a Steinway M now in the shop. ...(the one getting the new WNG shanks). Is it advisable to lower tension on the whole piano before removing the old strings from the top two sections? I'm thinking yes so as to not adversely stress the plate. It's had many replaced strings in that area and lots of false beats. The lower sections are fine and clear....so, why mess with it?
