Del, Then, if the longitudinal mode frequency built in to a bass string =
is hit or miss, how come the class I just went to in Milwaukee, given by =
a bass string maker, said that he can design-in the longitudinal mode, =
so that it is a more in-tune frequency than the "off the rack" string =
makers?  Smoke up our collective dresses?  Or a real advance in string =
making technology?  I am hoping for an improvement, as I just got =
finished tuning a S and S M that had a few that were (now that I know =
what it was) really unpleasant, and impossible to tune or voice out.

    Del,

    That's a very interesting history.  Makes one wonder if/how the =
current custom rescalers/stringmakers are controlling the longitudinal =
mode?

  As it's always been -- it's hit or miss. But it was with Baldwin's =
SynchroTone strings as well. Except, perhaps, for some few that might =
have been made under Harold Conklin's personal supervision.
