The Hamburg that I measured is 2000 the NY is 1991. Keith From: caut-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:caut-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of Ed Foote Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2010 11:48 AM To: caut at ptg.org Subject: Re: [CAUT] Sharps >Recently a client said she was sure that Hamburg sharps were narrower on the top than NY Steinways. The measurements I have taken seem to conform that the Hamburg sharps are about .005” narrower. Is this right? How could she feel that little difference? Greetings, What years are we talking about? The New York pianos have had a variety of widths through the years. I have had a 1950's model with very narrow sharps, and the Pratt Read keys of the 60's were varied, as well.
