Hi list,

I can no longer depend on Baldwin for getting parts, and I have a customer 
waiting on bass strings for a Baldwin 248.  The newer 48" model.  The 
replacement strings are the totally wrong strings.  I have no idea what these 
folks are doing at Baldwin.  I have removed the old strings and when the new 
ones were the wrong size I figured the customer could wait for the correct 
ones.  That was a month ago.  

I know there are changes they are making with the new ownership, but come on. 
 Let's see some improvement.  I rarely get a call back when I leave a 
message.  

So, enough ranting.  I know this list is famous for ranting.  Where do I go 
to get more strings.  I do have the original strings, but they are the wrong 
size, hence that's why they are being replaced.  I figured it was odd to have 
the copper wrappings extending a half inch above the "V" bar.  Honestly, how 
did that make it out of the factory?

I have no numbers for Mapes or any other manufacturer.  I didn't figure any 
of them would have scale sticks for this model any way.  Who do I turn to.  
My customer has waited long enough.
