[pianotech] Yamaha G7 Scale

[Thomas Cole]

David,

It certainly wouldn't hurt to take speaking length measurements and 
enter them into a scaling program. I personally would never restring a 
piano without doing so, if for no other reason than curiosity, but the 
numbers you show raise some question marks.
