(Huge bonus points if you can guess what music this is resting on. Clue: it's a violin concerto. Clue #2: it's the 3rd movement of 3.)
I'd noticed that the A string on my violin was looking rather worn close to the peg, and it'd been about a year since I last switched my strings. So since we have a concert in a couple of weeks, I replaced my then-current strings (Pirastro Tonica brand) with Dominant strings (my usual brand) a couple of days back.
Imagine my surprise when I unwound the A string and saw that it was actually BROKEN under the purple wrapping end that went around the peg! Seriously, there was only ONE metal strand still holding it together under the purple. I'm astounded it didn't snap a month ago. I took it down and showed my non-musician roommates, who were like, "whoa, dude."
Anyway, it feels good to have new strings. May these not come close this to snapping any time soon.
Stringers Bova Futura YJ08 VRD approaches Lincoln for the Christmas Market on 9th December, 2017. It was purchased from Nova Tours almost two years previously.
The first two pairs of stringers went in without any dramas. The rebates already cut in the stem needed nuancing a little so that the slot tilted downwards a bit- easily achieved with handsaw and chisel. The angle on the leading edge of the stringer was easily scribed by running a pencil along the stem itself, marking a line parallel to the notch a little in front of the stem. This extra length caused by the thickness of the flat carpenter's pencil proved to be about right for good length when the stringer was tucked into its slot.
