This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I've come across a couple of uprights, owned locally by the public school district, that are new Schumann's. This is the U 822 model, Serial #HHA01131. As I've gone in to tune, I've noticed that both have had bass strings broken and repaired, roughly in the same area. One of them is missing an F2 string. I'm guessing that these bass strings were broken in the move, or delivery. I'll order another to replace it with, but I'm curious if 1) this has been an issue that has come up before with the Schumann, 2) who now makes this critter, and 3) where are they manufactured? By looking at the felts, cabinet, and hammers, my guess is that it is a fairly recent model, within the past 8-10 years. My primary vocation is as a music minister in a church, and I've only been tuning 'on the side' for about 9 or 10 months, although I've played for 30 years. Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated. Monty Nichols ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
