Steinway B plate/scale modifications

[Frank Weston]

Thanks,

I've checked the archives, but there is no information I could find about
specific serial numbers and plate changes.  I've learned that recent B
plates have 2, 3, or 4 embossed on the tail, but it is not clear what these
numbers represent.

I have heard the rumor that Steinway plates are being made in Brazil.  Any
truth to this tale?
