Yes. Pretty much every piano I come to. Do you mean more than once? Only if I'm doing the entire string seating protocol again. I see a potential danger for the bridge top there, and bridge roll also(because of the lower tension in the back scale after that. I don't think I'm pushing hard enough for that to happen. I've been doing that for some time , but did not notice a such interesting improvement for that part of the process. It is very useful to low the pitch, for sure, but how hard do you press the back scale, ? I can't press all that hard because I have Rheumatoid arthritis, and have pretty depleted grip and push strength right now. Enough to make a difference in pitch, and stretch the wire a little. how high get the tension there ? Don't know. what happens to the string ?. It stretches, apparently, and goes down in pitch. I start from the back because my engineer partner tells me the string is moving forward, and this is the most stable method to achieve what I want to..... Hope this helps.....David A. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
