I see he's got the compulsory 8 monochords, 5 bichords, and 7 trichords for a 20 note bass. I wonder where that recipe came from, and if his A-0 core wire is 1.6mm. I can't tell if it's a ring bridge, but I suspect it might just be. Take a look at what he did with the bridge layout to avoid conflicting pin rows, and the four strings per note in the top three sections. I'd love to see the scaling numbers on this piano. Any idea what the huge (looks like about) 25mm circles all over the soundboard are? They might correspond to rib locations, from the spacing, but what are they? Not enough pictures of construction details. Aha! http://www.borgato.it/grancoda.htm Yup, it's a ring bridge. Ron N
