Baldwin's last gasps?

[Stephen Airy]

Based on my experiences, I have liked the tone of some
studio and console Hamiltons and Wurlitzers (made by
Baldwin -- some wurlitzers I have liked were probably
made before they were bought by Baldwin.)

I wonder if there's a chance they could spin off the
Hamilton (if they're still making them) and Wurlitzer
lines?
