[pianotech] string replacement

[Paul T Williams]

Same thing here, as probably all university settings.  You get really good 
really fast. Just be careful! You'll be fine.

Jack:
 
I leave the damper on.  Here at the school I have to replace lots of 
broken strings so I get lots of practice.  If you’re careful you can work 
the string under the damper without damage.  Of course, a majority of the 
treble strings that are broken don’t have dampers.

Hello all, 
 
 
I have a question about replacing a string on a grand piano. When 
replacing a string do you remove the damper
or leave the damper in?
Does it matter? I would like to hear what you all do. 
 
 
Regards,
Jack Houweling
