  Subject: tubby bass string replacement tip


  I was called in to tune the piano at a restaurant, and replace a bass =
string which had broken.  The piano was a Story & Clark (Samick) and is =
full of false beats in the treble and dead, tubby bass strings.  When I =
mic-ed the broken string, I found that I did not have one that size.  It =
was larger than a #1 Schaff universal replacement.  My original plan was =
to replace the string with a universal and order a duplicate of the =
original to replace the universal.  But not having a universal the =
correct size, I thought I would just leave it as is, and return ASAP =
with the dupe.

  Expecting flames from this one, I'd never do it on a Steinway, honest, =
