Well that's the other problem. >Were the strings used on this model somewhat annealed I wonder? Gosh! >Will it never end? Sounds like a re-string and a rim job. If the becket segment is not long enough, the coil may slowly 'unwind' or creep. Perhaps the stringer did not place the wire sufficiently into the hole during the stringing process. Hence your predicament. Loosen the coils on a few to examine this wire length. Another procedure would be to apply pressure on the speaking length by rubbing to coax the wire through the bridge pins to insure wire segment tension and rendering. Are the loops all down to the plate at the hitch pins? It would be a good idea to tap them down before rubbing. Also "squeeze" the loops at the hitch pins to reduce any chance of slippage/creep. -- Regards, Jon Page ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
