Terry Farrell Greetings, The other day I tuned a piano that has all the damper wires = in the front of the action....very gently!

(as one think it would/should be after = all those years)=20 My question is: Was there a company that made replacement = actions for these pianos, perhaps in the 1950's, 1960's? The reason I = ask is that the action's wooden parts look no older than = that....and...are these pianos difficult to rework (new cloth/felts = regulation and such)?
