Not meaning to do Pianotek out of business, but go to an auto supply store and get a length of brake line. Put a divider at one end, i.e. drill a hole through it and put a centre pin in and flatten the ends like a rivet to hold it in place. That makes sure that when you put the wire in, you can make sure it doesn't get twisted, and you know the orientation. A length of curtain rod works as well. I do like the Pianotek tool that helps align the wires across the bridge pins, it has a plastic separator, to spread the bass wires. Mind you if the bridge pins are behind the keybed, it takes patience, and sometimes some choice words are said under ones breath. :-) John Ross On 16-Dec-08, at 8:26 PM, Raymond Irving wrote: > Use the Stringer from Pianotek.
