<<  I spliced the string for the time
being, but on a Steinway I think I should put in a new one.  Is it best
to order that from Steinway?  Do they make their own strings, or can I
order it directly from the string manufacturer and save a few bucks? >>

Mapes makes them for the factory. But a neat splice is, imho, the more 
beneficial way to go, since it keeps the strings alike.
