This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Dear list, The other day I "ran into" a Wurlitzer console which had it`s top 2 = tuning pins, at the 1st tri-chord unison, too close together. When I = put the tuning lever tip on either of the top 2 pins the other tip would = move. So, I need to return as soon as possible to tuning a clean = unison. As it was, I roughly calculated how much the strings were = moving once I removed the tuning hammer and moved the pin that amount = sharp to compensate, but the unison is far from satisfactory. The owner = mentioned that no other tuners had ever mentioned this, leaving me to = wonder what I was missing. I`ve compared all my APSCO, Schaff, and Hale = tips and they are a pretty much the same outside dimensions. I am anxious to please w/o asking the customer to recall the names = of my competition. My plan, is to take a #2 tip which will not slide as far down the = pin as the #3`s, which I normally use, and grind down the outside as = much as necessary to allow it to fit on these pins w/o interfering with = the adjacent pin. Any suggestions or better ideas? thanks,=20 Tom Carpenter Berthoud, Co ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
