This puts me back on the snuffs of this circle of sound thing I have heard a few times, and up to now its been presented in such a way that it seems simply like something out of the book of the Templars or something. However, there is often as not some element of truth in even the strangest of legends they say.... so to the point.... just how do tuning pin bushings influence the tone of an instrument, and to what degree do they do so. And while you are at it.. how does this influence on tone work into the discussion about open face vs closed face pin blocks ? btw... good to "see" you again ! Richard Brekne
