> Had a weird one today. 1959 Lester spinet, average condition, been in 
> the same heated/cooled home all it's life. The bridge pins and strings 
> where they cross the bridge were rusted, bad. No rust of any sort 
> anywhere else. Four strings were broken and missing when I arrived, the 
> rust had severely corroded the strings at the bridge crossing and very 
> wild strings everywhere due to the poor termination.
