[pianotech] string question

[David Doremus]

In my limited experience:
     1. No, the last one I restrung was a 20 year old 225 that got water 
in it in a storm. I got the bass strings from Arledge and they sound 
fantastic.
     2. Not as far as I have found, however I only take care of three 
recent ones. The others are all in the 1890's to 1920's range and have 
been restrung....
