This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I just finished restringing a couple of older pianos (Schiedmayer, = Schomacker). Both pianos were originally strung with #1 tuning pins. = This was nice since both blocks were good it allowed me to restring with = #2's. I'm curious when/why companies got in the habit of doing the = initial stringing with #2's. The improved tuning quality of a smaller = pin would suggest using a #1, as I believe many Japanese makers do. I = know some rebuilders (Dale Erwin) are also stringing new blocks with = #1's. Is there any compelling reason not to use a #1 pin when = installing a new block? =20 David Love ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
