  Marshall,

  That kind of light will cause pitch changes if it's close enough to =
the strings. Maybe an LED flashlight or LED lamp you could wear on your =
head. Just from observation, it may be cooler than an incandescent.

  I've never tried the gang mutes.

  Best of success to you.

  Hi JOhn,

  Well hopefully, I'm practicing good habits, but I need to figure out =
where i'm losing time and change that.  One thing is muting.  I'm going =
to look in my schaff catelog and see if there's any kind of light, =
trouble light, type of thing i can clamp on the lid of a grand or put on =
an upright so I can really see the strings when I'm muting them. On =
grands, the three string unisons are a little close together in the =
trebble section.  Have you ever had any experience with a gang mute from =
Schaff?  They're pretty cool looking, a long rubber mute with wedges on =
it, about 13 I beleive. =20

  =20

  I think my joining the PTg will be a marriage made in heaven.  I can't =
wait until I go tothat first meeting. =20
