<DIV>A local church has a Zuckerman, Double Choir Harpsichord. I don't
know if this was a kit or not, but the coils on the pins are not very neat, so I
suspect it's a kit. When I tune it to A-440, strings break. I've
currently tuned it to A-415 (one semi-tone flat), but the music director isn't
happy transposing everything. I'm betting the bridge is in the wrong
place, causing the string tension to reach the breaking point at A-440.
I'd be interested in any suggestions on a cost-effective fix. </DIV>
