  Subject: Upright Stringing - Pressure Bar


  I will be stringing an upright in the next few days. I have the =
pressure bars off. Seems to me that it would be a lot easier to string =
up the plain wire section, leaving the tension fairly loose, and =
installing the pressure bars after the strings are on - would be much =
less restrictive than dealing with the short segment of wire protruding =
from under the bars if they were installed before hand. What do others =
do? Which way works best?

      I always take the pressure bar off (taking note of its height =
first, of course), then put it back on after the thing is strung, =
strings still being quite loose so I can get the pressure bar set to the =
correct height.  Then chip to pitch, straighten and space unisons, etc.  =

      Don't know what "other way" you're talking about -- you mean =
stringing with the pressure bar already in place?  Why?!  And what short =
segment of wire "protrudes from under the bars"?
