Newton,

   Yes, I'm very aware of that but have been told that this particular
piece, Voice of the Whale, has minimal "preparation". Primarily tape & some
chalk marks, with a little LIGHT chisel on the strings.
   Anyway, it looks now like I won't have to do that rebuild in time for
the concert. I've come up with several other acceptable alternative
possibilities.

Regards,
Avery
