Seems like the number of bass notes would dictate the lengths of the two sections. Maybe a 22 note bass rod could be made to work, but 28 to 21?=20 Hey Tom, If all else fails, cut the bass end off of a 28 note rod and braze it back on to the treble end.

Looks like I either need to have a sostenuto rail made or (hopefully) find a manufacturer who shares a similar 21 note bass configuration. Do you know of any scaled pianos being manufactured today which uses a 21 note bass? Mason & Hamlin BB? No luck through Schaff or Pianotek.=20 Thanks Tom Servinsky, RPT=20 --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
