Climate Control; -strings cover

[Isaac OLEG]

Only a thing I heard about string covers , is that they have to be
made from pure wool, as mixed materials will retain moisture and pure
wool no (what I believe).

So speakers material is probably not the same .

Never try the process myself, but some rented pianos have custom made
string covers, very useful for outside festivals.

Best regards
