Pin Block Replacement Overview How a Piano Pin Block Is Restored

When piano strings become old and rusty or decayed replacement is necessary in order to properly tune a piano to A440 pitch and to maintain the piano's optimum sound qualities. Restringing a piano is a three step process involving removal of dampers and strings, scaling, duplication of strings and installation of the new pins and strings. The dampers must be removed in order to facilitate the removal of the strings and to prevent damage.
