With regard to restringing a M&H screw stringer -- is this a piano worth restringing? I tune one for a customer, and am never happy with the tuning, and would never want to own one. In my mind, they're in the same category with square grands: interesting, but the world has moved on to better things. The question about string length is still a valid one for repairing individual strings, but if one of these babies needed restringing, I'd tell the customer to get a more serviceable piano. I'm willing to be wrong on this one. That's my perspective. I should say I adore Mason & Hamlins in general. Mark Graham Baldwin-Wallace Conservatory of Music Berea, Ohio
