So how did it sound? Dean Dean May cell 812.239.3359 PianoRebuilders.com 812.235.5272 Terre Haute IN 47802 -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of David Boyce Sent: Friday, July 06, 2007 3:20 PM To: Pianotech List Subject: Odd bass bridge I tuned an upright today with a bass bridge feature I'd not seen before. It makes contact with the soundboard only at the two ends, as you can see in the picture. The blocks are about 2 1/2" long, and the right-hand one has a tail that goes under the frame, and which I foolishly missed out of the photo. The whole of the rest of the bridge floats about half an inch above the soundboard. I wonder what the theory was - perhaps the two ends are supposed to be on special nodes in the soundbard or something? David.
