[pianotech] Re-Installing Original Bass Strings

[Tony Caught]

Repeat the twist that was there at the time of removal. Or. Put all bass
strings on with no twist. Check the tone and twist as desired. Generally I
have found that a half twkst per string is enough.

recommended installation procedures regarding no-twist, half-twist, etc.
being applied to a newly-installed string.
