style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">I don't know that more CA would've worked. Most
of the bass section wasn't just loose -- the tuning pin would not hold even
the slightest tuning. It took about 60° of turn to bring it to pitch, and then
when you let go it would unwind right back to where it started. It seemed way
too loose for me for CA, but then my experience is limited on the edge of the
envelope stuff for CA. Is there a limit on just how loose a pin can be and
still accept a CA treatment?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
