Don, (Mannino) You and I are apparently talking about two different scales. In the scale I am talking about, the bridge agraffes did not stop at the treble break, but went the entire length of the main bridge all the way up to #88. The problem was in the top three octaves. By contrast, the strings at the low end of the bridge had relatively low tension. The relative tension along the main bridge went from one extreme to the other. Thanks to all for your comments.
