George Steck grand

[Alan]

Hmmmm... well I rolled one, off the pin, in my Steck. Went back with no
problem. I can't imagine there being a problem, actually, even in a
complete restring. The path of those strings from tuning pin to bridge
pin is dead-arrow-straight. I don't even see how it COULD end up "off
line" with the dampers, etc.

Maybe not just letting the them down.  My bad experience came from
letting down, taking off the H pin, rolling and twisting (or
untwisting) as necessary. The spacing and consequent damper action
was disiaster.  After that I didn't want to chance the debacale by
simply letting them down and raising up again. But if some brave
soul wants to experiment we are all ears.     ---rm
