Marshall,

 

If you ever do seat the strings on the bridge, you should always use
something softer than the music wire such as a piece of brass or a wooden
hammer shank dowel so as not to knick the wire or break it.

Hi Ron,
Would a brass false beat eliminator be better than a screwdriver blade, less
apt to nick the pin or slip and nick the string? or is that being overly
causious?
