Hello, I have an old S&S in the shop for partial restoration for a school. It was previously a player, so I'm not exactly sure how the model works with these. Perhaps an L (see pics)? The old rusty strings are not original, as I found the pinblock was replaced at some point (11-ply block). The original scale is not available in the plate, as it was (badly) refinished at some point. I noticed a number of anomalies in the scaling this evening, most disturbing some jumping back and forth between sizes and many unisons had different size wire diameters-- as if someone tried to "transition" between string sizes by splitting unisons. The data below is roughly what I was able to collect:

____________

2 tenor bi-cords

4, size 19

2, 18

12, 17

4, 16.5

4, 16

STRUT

3, 16

6, 15

6, 14.5

2, 14

STRUT

3, 14.5

4, 14

10, 13

____________

If anyone can provide the correct scaling, I would very much appreciate it. Thank you!
