<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT><FONT face=Arial>Same question with a =
different
twist. I service a Yamaha C3 that was recently restrung (not by me). =
The
stringer used tuning pins in the bass that were obviously bigger than =
optimal.
The bass tuning pins are easily in excess of 300 inch-pounds torque - =
I will
not be surprised when I twist a pin in half. And when they do turn, =
they jump,
and the pitch will change anywhere from 20 to 40 cents. Getting the =
pitch
anywhere near target is a crap-shoot. Any ideas beyond removing pin, =
reaming,
and reinstalling?</FONT></DIV>
