Or have someone do it for you.  You can get into trouble doing it on your
own.

Does Anyone have a Treble String scale for a 5' 0'' Franklin Grand. The

Travis book does not have a listing and I can't find a suitable scale.

 

 

Paul, et al,

Why is it that we constantly get these queries? The only way, in my mind, is
to take the existing speaking lengths and run it through a Scale Program and
come up with the best for that particular instrument that is possible. BTW,
doing that exercise on the BASS is even more critical! I advise, NEVER send
a set of bass strings off for "duplication" unless they are the very most
perfect set you've ever seen AND you are absolutely positive the string
maker will not screw it up.

Thanks for listening. (reading<G>)
