I heard a "zinging" in the attack of a low tenor string on a customer's = piano. She heard it, too, and didn't like it. (Turned out a little = needling on the hammer at about 1 o'clock and 11 o'clock softened that = attack nicely) Upon close inspection I notice an anomaly in the way the = bridge was notched. It's the right string of the lowest plain string = unison. I was wondering if I might elicit a few opinions about the = looks of this. I've attached a photo -- I hope it comes through! The bridge isn't notched all the way across on that right-most pin. On = the side that the string bears there is certainly a good notch, but to = the right of that it's not. Seems like that would actually strengthen = rather than weaken the pin's hold, but since it looks unusual I thought = I'd ask. Extending upward from the un-notched edge there is a visible = line. That's the border of the notching. It is not a crack. This is a = fairly new piano, about 3 or 4 years old, a Knabe Studio Upright.
