I saw had not a single crack in the soundboard. An incredible number
of ribs. The bass bridge was extremely different with a wide flange
flowing out from the bottom end and 4 one inch holes drilled through
its side. This piano had a magnificent sound -- still with the
original strings.>>

This just doesn't sound like the same Janssen we know and hate --
could it be a different company?
