Subject: grooved capo on Baldwin L


 My client has a Baldwin L ('79) with a grooved capo that is producing more
 vibrato than Cecilia Bartoli.
 If I roll the wire over each edge of the groove and then back to center,
the
 false beat all-but disappears.
 However, since much of the treble section has this same problem, I would
 rather reshape the entire capo (as I do when rebuilding).
 The hitch (pardon the pun)is in the Accu-just pins:
 is there an efficient way of de-tensioning, reshaping the capo, and
 resetting downbearing? And how much time should I estimate for this labor?

 Thanks in advance for any help,
 John Tonyan R.P.T.
