Your advice is good. The same thing happened to me several years ago when I 
was tuning a Yamaha C-3 for 2nd City here is Chicago; bass strings popping 
every performance, and anguished screams at 9 at night from the stage manager 
and producer. I had them buy a full set of strings to keep on hand, and began 
to replace the broken ones with the new, and then to re-tie the new when they 
broke. Interestingly enough, when tied, the new/old strings never broke 
again. They finished that series of performances before we ran out of new 
strings, and then sold the piano. It was an annoying source of income for 
while.
