[CAUT] replacement grand leg

[Fred Sturm]

Well, Mr. Wurlitzer would be Mr. Baldwin, which would be Mr. Gibson,  
no? At least as far as I know, Wurlitzer was a decal name Baldwin put  
on Asian pianos at last report. I went to the Baldwin website  
(actually Gibson) and found no mention of Wurlitzer pianos being for  
sale (they show lots of Baldwin models). So my guess was that Gibson  
had dropped the Wurlitzer thing. Hence, my guess was that customer and  
parts support would be unlikely. But I suppose it's worth an email to  
the Baldwin support guys just in case.
