This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment okay everybody on my piano technicians emailing list...here's one... a B. Shoninger upright #6215 (suffice it to say it is an early one, = pierce is unclear). not in great shape..given to the client as they were leaving winnipeg = posted to cfb comox (west coast canada).... no bridge cracks but missing = treble hammers, cracked soundboard, lots of missing strings and bass = strings spliced by reef knots (yo ho ho and a barrel of piano = hammers,...this will be fun). however, the top octave and a half have something interesting....a = sostenuto like device operating off the middle pedal that kicks in an = alternate set of wood hammers which strike a series of bells built in = under the keybed to the far right. the bells are like teacup saucers = stacked largest to the left on the horizontal. this is obviously not a = retro-fit. a few of the wood mallets/hammers are broken...client has no money of = course (they live where i do) but want to put it into playing shape. ANYBODY run into one of these before, have any ideas or thoughts? thanks james lithgow ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
