Danm these interesting tid bits that get buried in fly by subject
lines postings.   : )
I tried protek. I was happy with the results.  However there was also
old felt involved that old strings were rubbing on. Whether or not
this acts as a cutting fluid or lubricant time will tell.  My
complaint about the problem you mention above is that the first note
on the V bar tends to be also the first note next to a cut in the
bridge  (a cut to let a plate strut pass).  A credible technical
excuse, can save the account.  Maybe we should post some of these.  ;

Hmm Am I missing out? , I usually only get 24 or 25.  When I was gone
for three days there were 75 waiting.
