• Send us your old strings. 
  • Please cut off the tuning pin coils and tell us how many singles, bi-chords, tenor bi-chords (if any), and tri-chords.

   

• Send us a pattern you make (rubbing).
  • For grand pianos, please remove dampers (if possible) when making your pattern.  We know it's extra work, but it makes the precision that much easier to achieve.
  • Please send us the lowest and highest string on the bass bridge.  This is not needed when dampers are removed for making the pattern.
  • Please tell us the wire size and speaking length of the lowest, plain-wire note.  This helps us to give your piano a smoother bass/tenor break.
  • Let us know the number of singles, bi-chords, tenor bi-chords (if any), and tri-chords.
  • On the pattern we need:  Hitch Pins, Two Lines of Bridge Pins and Agraffes.  Please be sure to count the hitch pins on the plate and on the pattern to ensure they are all clearly visible.
  • USE HEAVY CRAFT PAPER IF POSSIBLE.
