<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2> Hi Gang:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2> I'm writing for one of our
sight impaired chapter members who is having trouble restringing a 36" Sabel 85
note vertical c.1953, European. He indicates the treble V-bar is not cast
into the plate and is free to move around. His question is how does the
V-bar remain in one place as he puts tension on the strings? It seems to
be shifting as the strings are brought up to pitch. Does string pressure
alone keep it in position? Does the pressure bar have any bearing (pun) on
this? Anyone run into this before? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2> Thanks for your help, and
Rodney thanks you too.....</FONT></DIV>
