Friends,</font><br>
<br>
<font face="arial" size=2>I service a harpsichord built by Eric Herz in
1969. 2 manuals, 2- 8ft, 1- 16ft and 1 - 4ft. Several strings
have broken in the lowest octave in both the 8 ft and 4 ft
registers. The wire is not steel - some looks like brass and some
looks like copper.</font><br>
<font face="arial" size=2> 3 questions - 1. Does any one have
experience with this type of instrument? 2. What exactly is
this wire made of? and </font><br>
<font face="arial" size=2>3. Where can I get the wire. Any
help would be gratly appreciated.</font><br>
<br>
