The customer had a fire in her kitchen and said there was smoke = damage that she cleaned up. She did not have insurance. It was late in = the day but I took 2 of the worst offenders loose, ran a loop of the = wire up and down the string and put a half twist in it and pulled it = back to tension. This revived these 2 strings nicely. The sound board is quite dusty but I see no soot. The action is also = quite clean with no evidence of smoke soot. The worst I can see is some = rust on the treble strings. My question is wether looping and twisting the strings is a long term = fix or should the strings be replaced.=20 What are your thoughts?
