Anny comments about the right procedure(s) of twisting are welcome. Thank you. Danny. danny.boddin@planetinternet.be Danny Boddin Pianoservice Loddershoekstraat 4 B1741 Belgium >> The amount of turns indicated above is excessive. The way you described that you usually do it is considered proper. Only in an attempt to remedy a very bad sounding string would you ever twist it more than two full turns.
