Wow, that is nice sound. It is bright piano at the highs and becomes a plucked bass at the bottom. Maybe not unexpected but better than i thought.

Sorry lockdown has me going stir crazy
The string breaking and the weird jangly harmonics after was so ominous. It is perfect for a horror movie. 9:16
The tuning bit really does feel like suspenseful horror. With a natural soundtrack.
Why does this actually sound okay? Like the higher notes especially have a decent sound to them. Props to the Ernie Ball engineer for actually being intrigued enough to respond.
The difference between piano and guitar tone is largely set by the steel frame instead of wood, being hammered at a certain length and pairings of strings on a note. The string construction isn't really that much different. Intonation and tension aren't going to be ideal since the thickness isn't optimized.
What's the name of the song he played at the end?
@@dilmayatamang7675 it's River flows in you
Middle region is actually dampened. The hammers and dampeners should be changed.
As a technician with 40+ years experience I snicker at you crazy obsession with this hobby of yours. If I can give you any pointers it would be to,1) when putting on bass strings, twist the towards the wrapping. It will tighten the coils in the wrapping and produce a better sound. 2) loosen the strings before you cut them. That plate has over 20+ tons of pressure. Loosen the middle strings on the trichords then the left on all the doubles and then the rest. This does include the bass side also. 3) Make better wraps for the hitch pins. Tighter wraps insure less slipping. Once you wrap on the hitch pin, tighten the string a bit and with hard wood or brass rod, tap the wrapping you did (coil) towards the hitch pin. 4) Once you wrap the string around the pin, clean those wraps up too. Becketts need to look clean and not like spaghetti strands 😄 5) Once your done doing your first pitch raise, tap all the strings down at the bridge pins. Both pins. This will insure the strings are firmly on the bridges and will assure good sound transition from the string to bridge to soundboard.
I give you kudos for your ambitious attitude. I get your love for pianos. Let me know when you start on the mechanic of the action.

Technician here. Ditto. This video is simultaneously impressive and painful. 😣
All the times I messed around with piano wires back in the day, I never gave a thought about how much pressure was being loaded. You make a good point.
This should have been top comment lol.
8:34 As someone who usually ends up snapping her strings
I physically recoiled when you played that string out of sheer PTSD
I love how the engineer was like "I can't recommend this... But we can do it anyway"
That's an engineers way of saying, don't come crying to me (with your remaining eye) when they snap and take your eye out.

I think this is the best weird strings piano so far, especially the lowest notes. I'm actually surprised you had a hard time getting longer strings, as I always assumed they are made as a continuous length and then cut to size, like any other wire.
This was truly amazing. Gotta love you engineers for real innovation even in creativity. I really enjoyed this, thank you.

Him tuning the string are giving me the highest level of anxiety
It's the way he presents it as well, it makes it seem worse
It legit sounded like something from a horror movie 😅
Carotid artery...☠
reminds me of when I first tuned my banjo and took the strings off one by one after it had sat for thirty years or so in a closet; it was otherwise in great shape when I bought it but oh man, tuning and trimming steel strings after they've sat for that long is really that suspenseful
I really like the little pluck sound that it makes when the hummers hit the strings.. Pretty impressive good job
@9:13 the sustain on these strings is amazing i would love to get a recording of this and make a kontakt library and use that in film scoring, this is actually gold,

@@JesusProtects I mean, it still takes a fair amount of skill to destring, restring and tune a piano.
Dude what this is insane. It sounds so much like a bass guitar it’s insane. I would love to use this for a song. You can make brand new styles with this thing
This is such a cool sound! The dedication on your part to try this is beyond impressive (:
What if you put strings of the string section on the piano: You put violing strings for the higher notes, cello strings for the mid range, and double base strongs for the lowest notes.
Yesh that sounds very interesting for sure!
While lighter gauge strings can tune higher, they also withstand less tension. If you put thicker strings to compensate for the tension, you'll be putting them under even more tension.
@@Mattiaskrantz How about guitar strings on the top?
I buy my strings at "stringjoy" and they let you customize the string gauge!
@@BrunodeSouzaLino This is only somewhat true. For instance, the E string on the vilolin for example is under the highest tension, while also being the thinnest of them.
@@finngaede8266 Keep in mind that the violin scale for a full size model is only 13.3". While I couldn't find sizes for violin strings, the entire violin is designed to withstand about 27 Kg, which is roughly the amount of tension you have for the entire set. Try stretching that string over a longer distance and you'll discover that it requires much more tension. Consider that a piano is designed to withstand over 20 tons of pressure over its frame, because that's how much tension all strings every over it.

When an actual song is being played on it, it actually doesn't sound the worst to be honest.

Electrical engineer here. My question is: if the goal is to beat the bass in means of numbers of strings, the engineer army need to beat the bass in means of electrical equipment - the number of bass pickups.

You've got balls, friend, and I'm not just talking about the strings. That's a massive undertaking, and I applaud you for your hard work. Intellectual curiosity that has a high cost (physical, monetary, social, etc) often pays strange yet wonderful dividends.
Yeah he probably does because look at the 2nd search recommendation at the start
This wasn’t cheap. A set of bass strings are like at least 20 dollars
Well aleast he got the piano for a bargin around 2887 dollars
earnie balls Green (slinky, these are the topseller from them. and i.o the best) are around 30€ in Germany 4 strings 😂
I don't know in Sweden, but a set of Gear4music bass strings (the one Mattias took) costs less than 6€ in Germany.
I absolutely relate to the “had a idea, thought it was a great idea, turned out it was a terrible idea”.
the tuning part was actually more terrifying than some horror movies

You maked a cool video. Don't give up bro. You're cool😎
It's interesting that a piano always sounds still mostly like a piano, no matter the strings. Sure, the guitar as well as the bass strings did alter the way it sounds in some unsua way but if I had listened to it w/o knowing what it is, I had said "It's a strange sounding piano". Same goes for the guitar with piano strings, that still sounds like a guitar, different as usual but you recognize it being a guitar. So the way how those instruments are played have a larger influence on the final sound than the strings. The strings only change the tone color of the instrument but not what makes that instrument stand out against other instruments.
The part where he tunes the piano is pure anxiety
