Twisting new bass strings

[Roger Jolly]

Hi William,
           Most verticals do not have agraphs. I have done several sound
board repairs on modern grands with out even removing the strings, as the
pin blocks are not glues in, on some models, it is possible to lift out the
plate, pinblock and strings as one unit saving considerable work.  It is
also easy to tie the bass strings to the strut and leave the the coils
intact on units that have an integrated case and pin block.
