This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hello Stephane Someone on the List already in great difficulty thru' cleaning 10 year = old Bass strings - they've gone dead and tubby sounding he said. I = wouldn't advise cleaning bass strings at all - just opens a whole can of = worms. Reason is the stuff (if it's liquid) gets into the interstices of = the copper covering and cruds up the core. Regards=20 Michael G.(UK) ----- Original Message -----=20 From: St=E9phane Collin=20 To: Pianotech=20 Sent: Monday, June 27, 2005 5:31 PM Subject: Bass strings control Hello list. We all know those singing upper partials who appear in nice bass = strings and make them breathe with the music. I have a friend who = doesn't like those. He plays F2 on his piano, nice rowling sound with = the singing upper partials who shake my spine, and he says "bah, no = good". Then he plays G2, nice rowling sound but no upper partials here, = so for me good but might benefit one (no more) twist, maybe it will = sing, maybe not, but the guy says "yeah man ! this one is really cool". = He wants them all like that. Any idea how to achieve this ? I thought voicing would be of little = help, but I might be wrong. I thought I could clean the offending = strings with copper polish, but I foresee a disaster. Untwist maybe ? = but then probably wounding buzzes. Anyone ever faced the same request ? Greetings.
