Howdy Lizt! Got a little problem with a 1927 S&S "O"....X-Player. Somebody removed the sostenuto rod along with all the player guts at some point in the past. The rod is of a different design in two ways. First, it seems to use a pitman rod instead of a monkey and secondly, the lift point is at the bass end of the rod as opposed to the standard bass/tenor break location. Steinway and Apsco had no replacements available and I really don't want to get into retro-fitting a "modren" settup. Anybody out there usin' one of these rods for a window prop?!@#$#@$#!!! Would muchly appreciate locating one amongst you happy folk! Thanks much. Dale Whitehead, RPT Franklin, TN
