had actually been thinking one way to improve the tone of the last couple
notes at the low end of the long bridge on my M&H 50 -- C#3, the lowest
before the break, is 38-3/4" long -- would be to replace the plain wires
with wound ones.  Now it seems maybe I am full of misconceptions and this is
a bad idea -- but why?

> No, but I’m thinking of going that route.  They also make trichord felt
with a thin point for wound trichords.  The problem from them has been the
flat dampers.  I don’t like cutting the flats and it’s nice when you can buy
flats with the trichords such that the thickness of the flats coordinates
with the thickness of the trichords for those dampers that require a
combination.
