This is the last email I have received from the PT list. I'm sending this to see if it's down.

Hi,

What method do you guys recommend for measuring the length of bass strings in a grand (while still in the piano) in order to have a new set made? Not with a paper pattern. I've used a measuring tape and a piece of string around the hitch pin which I marked and then re-measured afterwards....

Also, any rule-of-thumb as to the minimum grand piano size that would benefit from a computerized rescaling?


thanks
