Hi Doug,

Simply say to the client, "there is a possibility of
string failure". Don't make a big deal of it.

Strings can fail even when very small changes in pitch
are made.

The only time it is the tuner's fault is when the
lever is on the wrong pin.

If you are making a significant (say 50 cents or more)
pitch correction it is also prudent to say. "The plate
may fail."

>I still have to learn how to warn customers when to
tell >them a string might break.
