I make restorations of piano in Belo Horizonte MG - Brazil. To five years that we have used only the Denro mark for tuning pins. I am ahead of a problem: He is in the phase of re-stringing old uprigth Bechstein. This model is not very common in Brazil therefore its pinblock is closed (for the iron plate) and does not possess bushings in tuning pins. The plate of iron in pinblock has 7mm of thickness and tuning pins that I removed of there had 75mm of length. Then. No American or German suppliment company who knows offers tuning pins longers today (6/0 or 7/0 x 2-3/4). Will not be possible to substitute pinblock for a budgetary question (and nor she would advance). I promise a statue in the door of our workshop who to help me to find tuning pins 6/0 or 7/0 longer than 2-1/2. Much thankful Francisco Motta afinador em ig.com.br
