>>When do you all decide when to restring a grand? When it appears that I am restringing it one string at a time due to breakage. Other than that, in the school, I often restring the top section, from capo bar to the top. Steinways often have dents in the bridge cap that extend beyond the pins, so it is not uncommon to pull the pins, (the breaks can be a problem), renotch to the center of the pin hole, and then redrill and install new pins. Rendering problems in the felt areas are easily removed by using Pro-tek on the felt.
