Just wondering if anyone else has experienced a lot of false beats on old
Sohmer grands. This one has the agraffe bridge instead of the standard 2 pin
style. I am wondering if over time the bridge agraffes distort the music
wire making them false beat terribly. The majority of the false beating
occurs at the tenor/treble break. I am thinking the only remedy would be
restringing the piano. Does anyone else have suggestions? -Chris
