>> I discovered that the entire long bridge has this VERY rusty wire ONLY >>on top of the bridge between the bridge pins. The pins are the copper type. >>The other tenor bass strings down at the end of the long bridge where this >>one broke are even more rusty than the others. >___________________________ >Avery Todd, RPT Avery, I've seen exactly this same symptom in a "rebuilt" Steinway M....... not much rust or corrosion otherwise but the strings on top of the bridge between the pins almost "fluffy" with rust.
