Hi Joe,=20
I am not familian with a sheperd's crook(would that be a sheep =
rustler...:-)? What kind of bend would that be? =20
In this instance, I'm lucky. It's not a pressure situation, like an =
upcoming concert, and the customer can wait. =20
Thanks for your suggestion,=20

Hi Dave, There is another knotfor bass strings that might work in =
this case, One end ( the wraped ) is like the usual knot, while the =
other looks like a shepherds crook. Use pipe cleaners to practice tying. =
The knot is applied by dry fitting the two ends and measuring the =
length for the coil, before making the becket and coil. Start the coil =
and watch the ends so that when thet are close they can be mated. You =
will have to twist the crook into position or loosen the hitch and mate =
the two ends then twist the string in the direction of the inner wrap. =
The twist will only be like a half turn or so and is not hard to work =
with.=20
