1987 BT6 G & C strings "tinny" sounding

[Ronen Tat]

Any (well, most) experienced tech with the right tool will make sure the contact point/surface is optimal. It's really just fine tuning. Shouldn't take long, if needed at all. I think you should address this issue just to rule it out. Bad contact with the saddle would effect all notes on that string.

got it. Thanks. I'll look into that before going with the thicker string.

Less mass of string is thinner sounding and from thick to thin, they all change in tonality. A G open is thinner sounding than a G on the D, a thicker string.
