Thanks, David. I also haven't used them for many, many years. And will
never use them again. <br>

I’ve been doing this work for 33+ years and while I used to have
universal bass strings I haven’t for about 25 years. What do you
use them for? (i.e. what kind of piano do you hate so much that you
use universals on it?)<br>

First: a good micrometer. Second: Order the 1/3rd pound coils of wire,
(with the Brake) Third: A complete set of Universal Bass Strings.
Anything less, is not professional, IMO.<br>
Since Money is always an issue, I'd suggest the Micrometer First, (borrow
wire from your Mentor).<br>
