I tuned my first Knight piano (1953 model, console size) today. Eighteen years in the business. For many years prior I have heard of this piano and its maker. Now the waiting is thus over. Beautiful sound and workmanship. No tenor/treble break. One thing did catch my attention though. Something I have seen before, but never thought to ask anyone. I am looking at the bass bridge...the bridge pins on the bass bridge to be more exact, where the strings cross over and receive their side bearing because of the upper and lower bridge pins. When the single strings change to double strings, the side bearing reverses directions. Does someone know the reason for this? Keith A. McGavern, RPT Oklahoma Chapter 731
