The quickest and most effective way I know of, to make a piano sound more like a cash register, is to try and tune the front duplexes. Now DD, before you jump in with allegations pertaining to a possible excess of Kangaroos in the top paddock, I've done the bench testing so I don't give toss about patents which may have been granted in 1872. If you don't believe me have a listen to the MP3 sample files at; http://overspianos.com.au/samp.html The front duplexes of this piano (no. 3 - the one we exhibit in Reno) have been detuned. Sorry I haven't been contributing much to the list but I still read a lot of the posts. Its been pretty hectic down here lately.
