I do tap the pitch down before coming up during a pitch raise and that =
probably helps.  I'd be interested hearing from others who use the impa=
ct hammer and if they have noticed the same thing.   Always looking new=
 tools...although I'd hate to have to carry 2 tuning hammers with me.

One thing that will help curb string breakage, IMO, is the use of an Im=
pact Tuning Hammer. It's SOP for me. Of course, this applies to Upright=
s only. I tried same on a Grand once.....Yikes! Not a happy experience.=
