Was there a problem before?  Will someting go wrong if two adjacent notes vary by a few hundredths of an inch?

  I am restringing a Baldwin 6'4" grand.  The agraffes have varying numbers of washers underneath them with the result that they are at different heights.  In the high treble, there is a capo d'astro bar that determines the speaking length, so I can't see that setting a height for these will be a problem.  However, throughout the tenor and bass, the agraffes set the speaking length termination point.  How do I set the optimum height and even them out? 
  I would appreciate any suggestions you might have.
  Thanks, Karen
