Greetings to all, I have been reading the postings about this topic with great interest. I play on a Mason and Hamlin at my church. In the past two years, I have broken 71 strings (15 bass). We do not have a church band, just a piano, organ, violin, and flute. I do not play forcefully to be heard, but I play with confidence, a quality every church pianist should have. About three weeks ago, I got our church piano tech to do a complete voicing and reshaping of the hammers. I am happy to say that not one string has broken since then! Matthew
