Not accu-just, but vertical, yes. My understanding is that the accu-just are a bit different (been a while since I've seen one). then the type of plate suspension system isn't all that critical as one can adjust the bearing on the board without moving the plate, especially if the plate was installed in a fairly reasonable elevation. You would think. But you don't really want the string more than 5 mm or so above the plate and you need it a bit off the plate, so you really only have a few millimeters of up or down adjustment. So you really need to get the plate very near an ideal height - the pins don't really allow all that much adjustment. I find myself adjusting the plate height just as close to ideal as I did before using the adjustable system. And this, sadly, is one of those little details that was so often overlooked by the maker of these pianos.
