[CAUT] agraffes

[Wigent, Donald E]

Hi Karen:Don Wigent here.

You stated in your email that the agraffs have varying number of shims
under them. That does not mean that they are not level, however it could
mean that the shims are there to make the agraffs  all the same hight. I
hope that you kept the shims in order, after all with out the shims they
will not be level for sure.  I do have 1 question, why did you take them
out to start with? Did you have noise problems? Feel free to call. 

Don Wigent 

PS  did not hear from you on the net.

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
