He's talking about replacing an entire set of new bass=
 strings...you can loosen the action bolts and tip the action=
 back a bit for a little room.

Yeah, but they save you a return trip to the piano. Crappy=
 strings + crappy piano =3D good match.
 
And NO you don't need to remove action. I never do for a bass=
 string and I don't have any troubles with dampers or action=
 parts.

Matthew - Why use "universal" strings? They turn out to be=
 time-consuming to trim to length and are individually more=
 expensive than "bespoke" new strings. You'll get all the=
 practice you need in replacing bass covered strings by simply=
 putting on a set of proper bass strings! And YES you must remove=
 the action for this re-stringing - you'll damage the dampers=
 otherwise and tie yourself in knots dodging the action parts.
