Thanks Don, I guess that is the way I'm leaning.=20

So to be sure to have the correct sized tuning pin with me when I =
return, does anyone know what size pin would be original in the bass on =
a mid-80s Samick console?

  Terry,

  I think the best answer is that when strings break, install the new =
one with a longer tuning pin, or simply use an oversized pin and don't =
drive it down as far.  It's not ideal, as the pin will be more flexible, =
but at least it will allow a better coil and departure angle.
