Bluthner soundboard

[Brian Lawson]

How could you put one soundboard on top of another? the bridges would get in
the way for a start, the ribs......etc

I would NOT TOUCH this piano. I thought I'd seen it all. I saw Asian pianos
with laminated soundboard with masking tape on wich they painted faked
vertical grain to make it appear as solid... but 2 soundboards on top of
each other... this is too much.

I think this person was taken advantage of to put it mildly.

 E-Bay in a supposed
"rebuilt" condition. The hammers had been replaced
some years before, but no other action work seemed to
have been done. The soundboard had been replaced, but
it was glued and screwed on top of the old soundboard.
Is that a standard rebuilding technique?

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks a lot.
