While this is sort of fun, I think I would have released the tension equally from the treble and the tenor after the first one broke. You weren't afraid of the plate cracking? Susan >> Hi Cuz....... Well now you have hurt my feelings! :-) Are you assuming that I released a complete section without going to the next section in sequence? Not so if that is so. When removing tension for destringing I start at the tenor/bass break and release tension on the entire scale starting with the pins closest to the agraffe/capo bar continuing to the top of the scale...then the second pin etc......... Am I forgiven now? :-) Jim Bryant (FL)
