This would be a switch because what generaly happens is a Brambach is refinish and some other name is put on it. The Brambach grands don't have the name on the plate as I recall. The dealer I work with has a Brambach grand on consignment now which has been refinished badly and a Baldwin decal installed. I have never seen a Brambach upright in 20+ years of full time piano service on the west coast! Scott Johnson scott.e.johnson@24stex.com ___ Blue Wave/DOS v2.21 [NR]
