I got a reply from Ruud Billenkamp some months ago and now I'm going to = pitch raise and tune one of those Rippens I made myself a string voicing tool of a brass rod that I can put into = my regulatingscrewdriver. Can it help me to stabilise the pressure of the speaking and nonspeaking = areas if I massage the string? Espessially in the last one and a half = octave. Will it save me time and give me a more stabile result? I've = tried it and noticed the string reacts alot to it. Do anybody have thougts about this? What part of the string do I start with and how much massage is needed? I've tried to use the archives but it want work today. I also seen this done by Jim Coleman on a Video but he used it for = setting the string.
