  Subject: Pinblock Separation Questions


  I just looked at a late 1980s Baldwin studio, serial #1417324, style =
#4023 (model number?), with a pinblock separating from the back assembly =
(about a quarter-inch separation). The piano has 3 backposts, but the =
back assembly is covered with veneers. Does anyone know if the backposts =
on these pianos extend to the top of the back assembly (top of back =
assembly also covered with veneers - yes, I will be able to tell when I =
yank these veneers off - but was curious before I get into it). Any =
knowledge of this Del? The three top plate screws are centered over the =
three post centerlines, so I suspect they may extend up to the top.
As far as I know all Baldwin verticals were built the same way. The back =
posts extend all the way to the top and are separated by spacer blocks. =
The screws may or may not extend into the back posts. There was a time =
there when shorter screws were used.
