Repairing a Simplex Tracker Assembly
By Bill Maguire

On these "fishing pole" tracker systems I use squidding line or gorilla
line that you can get at Wal-Mart.  These are both strong and _flexible._
These are also excellent replacements for old silk cords that broke on
square grands, rocker actions and 'teens, 20s and 30s grand whippens
such as in Kranich and Bach pianos, etc.
