List,

The SF Ballet is going to do a ballet based on a Scott Joplin piece 
and they want a honky tonk sound.  I've looked in Schaff and they 
have a device but it doesn't cover the bass notes.  Question:  has 
anyone tried this and are the bass notes a problem for the honky 
tonk sound, i.e. with the angle of the strings etc?  This may be all I 
can get?  They have new Yamahas and I'm not poking any tacks in 
the hammers...;-]

Any ideas...

David I.
