Hi Ric, Yes, with pianos you *can* have it both ways. On some pianos apparently replacing the bridge pin with a larger one, or sizing the hole removes the false beat. On others it makes no difference. We unfortunately don't yet understand what causes *all* false beats. So loose bridge pins *may* cause false beats. This satisfies the logic. Was there *lots* of sidebearing on that piano Ric? I suspect there was. At 04:44 PM 4/5/2006 +0200, you wrote: >David. > >Either they cause false beats...or they dont. You cant have it both >ways.
