Howdy y'all. I'm a bit new to the platform so forgive my inexperience. I'm a student tech at a college who's learning how to be a technician in a pseudo apprenticeship. I bought a Screwstringer about two years ago for $200 out of the sheer curiosity of it and did some minor action work to it with some help from an experienced technician. I recently started working on tuning it as it's sat for about eight years without being tuned and I myself didn't want to do it when I was in the early stages learning. I started tuning the bass and tenor areas but stopped because I had read that the combs were super fragile. My main concern is breaking one of those, one of the machines,or snapping a string so any tips would be appreciated! I love M & H pianos and have a slight fascination with them… particularly the AMPICOs. Thanks y'all for the help!
