[pianotech] GH-1s - was Integrity

[David Love]

I presume you changed those to wrapped strings or something without changing
the bridge.  Did you use wrapped bichords or trichords, if you recall.

"I think the scaling in the low tenor runs down to about .05% break point
percentage (yes, joking again--I guess I should use the little <g> thing to
avoid others' confusion), but it's quite low making that section virtually
untenable with any other part of the piano. 
 
I do actually give them my best shot in spite of my facetious comment". 
 
David,
As do I.<G> I'm currently doing a re-design of the Tenor Break area, (as I
did years ago, and lost the darned paper work on it! grrr!<G>), for a 70's
GH-1. It is my contention that these little beasts can be a whole lot
better, (in that area), if just given a revamp like the one I'm doing. BTW,
it involves only 6 notes and reasonably easy to do, (at least for a shop
smurf<G>). I would recommend it to most, for a reasonable solution to the
problem.
Best,
Joe
