This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi David, It would be very hard to prove one way or the other as any manipulation = of the pin or string would change the test. These pins were a good 1/4 = above the top of the wire. POS but $300.00 later <G> As well as a much nicer sounding piano.

Not sure I'd agree with the bridge pin height as a cause, unless the = string is attached to the top of the bridge pin. With the string = contact at the pin/bridge intersection, the height is not really that = relevant.=20 David Love davidlovepianos@comcast.net=20 -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org] On = Behalf Of Joe And Penny Goss Sent: Thursday, December 22, 2005 7:26 AM To: Pianotech Subject: Re: false beats from ?? -... Hi, Could we add to the list of causes of false beats the hight of the = bridge pin above the string? A taller flag pole sways easier than a short one. ??What is the relationship between the size of the wire and cause of = false beats?? It seems to me that 90% of false strings are from C6 up/ Did a spinet yesterday with CA. Still some falsies but none too wild = to tame with sympathetic vibration of the other two strings. I did also have to rub the rust off of three individual strings to = calm them down as well. That is when I noticed the overly tall bridge pins. As the action was = now back in the piano I did not do a tap dance on them <g> Joe Goss RPT Mother Goose Tools imatunr@srvinet.com www.mothergoosetools.com ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
