[CAUT] partial rescaling of C7

[Ari Isaac]

I would change to wound notes there, the break will be smoother and the tone
will be more musical and blend better.

Hello.  What are your thoughts on changing to a heavier gauge wire on 
the two lowest tenor notes just above the break on a C7?  People have 
told me they want more tone from them, and what it sounds like to me is 
the wire gauge is just a little too light.  Perhaps they should have 
even been wound strings there.  It's a fine piano and I wouldn't be 
critical of it myself, but I'm being pressured to see if there is 
anything that can be done to make that F and F# more resonant.  It's 
from 1977 and I wonder if maybe Yamaha themselves have made some slight 
changes in that area to the C7 over the years.

Thank you for any suggestions.
Robert
