String replacement under overstrung area

[Marcel Carey]

Joe,
 
The only thing I don't agree with your answer is the "and turn out each
pin a full 3 turns!". I would never do that on an old upright. I always
use a "dummy pin" to do the coils and turn the pins in the piano only 1
full turn.

Hi  Michelle,
First remove broken string and turn out each pin a full 3 turns!
Then loosen a few bass strings that are in the neighborhood of the
bridge pins of D4 so that you can pull the loosened bass strings out of
the way as you work.  <snip>
