This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi Rick, Your questions are at a basic level (don't take that as a criticism - = good thing you are asking!). I would suggest getting a reputable = instructional publication such as Reblitz. Such a book covers the basics = pretty well and will address most if not all your questions (and will = have pictures, etc.).

Should I relieve tension on treble strings before removing bass = strings? 2. After relieving tension on bass strings, can I cut them with wire = cutters close to tuning pins or is the whole string needed as a model = when I send the old set in? 3. What criteria can I go by in deciding whether or not to go up to = the next tuning pin size? 4. Suggested procedure for both removal of old and replacement of new = strings? 5. Where can I find the serial number on an old Wurlizter grand? 6. Is there a coiling tool worth buying that will make the job = easier? 7. Any other comments related to the job. Thanks, Rick Bazemore -------------------------------------------------------------------------= ----- Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!
