Hi David,
Yeh I know this idea might cost someone a restringing job.  <g>
For those of you who did not notice this is an Everett piano not a world =
class instrument.
There is bound to be some loss of tonal possibilitys with this procedure =
just as any lube is not the final
answer for the big V,  but new parts.

  David, did you mean sit butt or seat string?=20

  Again, I don't think Ron is trying to be a jokester.=20

  Here, look at me:     :-|     Or am I just that slow?

  I think Ron's point is that string seating is likely of little if any =
benefit (at least long term) to false beat reduction. If you isolate the =
two procedures, you can better evaluate how each procedure affects the =
outcome. Perhaps a similar benefit will occur from CA application alone.
