wire size

[piannaman at aol.com]

 Brian,
 
A wire in the middle of the piano will be thicker than 15.  And there is a possibility that it's a wound string, depending on how one defines "the middle of the piano."  
 
Having all wire sizes from 12 to 20 or so is a good idea.  It'll save you return trips and will make you money.

Subject: wire size


Hello List,
 
I will be visiting a new client next week and she has told me that a string in the middle of the piano is broken.  The piano is an old, tall upright.  I have several sizes of wire and will bring them along with me.  However, the thickest that I have is size 15.  
 
What are the chances that I will need a thicker wire than 15 to properly replace the broken string?
