I'm about to restring a Zuckermann Italian virginal made in the late 1970s.

I have the original stringing schedule from the instruction manual 
("Numbers 1 through 14 are brass [0.025-0.014]; the rest are tinned mild 
steel [0.0145-0.008]").

But on the Claviers Baroques site, the stringing is entirely in brass:

http://www.claviersbaroques.com/CBExpertSSLItalianBoxVirginal.htm

"Italian Box Virginal, eg Zuckermann and similar

This is the 'official' stringing schedule from the kit instructions for 
stringing at A=440."

I don't know whether Zuckermann changed their design over the last 40 
years, or whether they simply changed their mind on stringing.

Would anyone here have suggestions for such an instrument (designed in 
1978)?

Many thanks.

Dennis
