Rebuilding Grand Backchecks

[John Ross]

ecsaine looks good. I got a sample at Kansas City, from Pianotek.
It is consistent, and is what Yamaha and Kawai use, I believe.
I haven't used it, though I will be trying it, next time I do that type of job.

  I will be rebuilding a set of grand backchecks. I seem to remember a recent discussion on escane (sp?) instead of leather - is this good - is this available - where? Or, if not, who recommends leather from where? Also, I don't see grand backcheck felt in the Pianotek catalog - what kind of felt is used under the leather?

  I searched the archives, but came up empty.
