If it has the two piece jack be sure to put a drop of CA on the glue joint.

Jack, 

Thanks for your help here. I have worked on several Brambach's in the past
and never noticed this style of whippen, although, I never really wanted to
delve into their inner workings as most of these piano's that I saw were in
such poor condition that removing the action might've caused more problems
than I wanted to tangle with. 

 

If you do have a reasonable match please let me know and I'll cover the cost
of part, storage and shipping. Thanks

 

David C.

Hello David,

 

    This  whippen is not from a real "Wurlitzer".

It is from a real  "Brambach"    

 

     Wurlitzer did use coil jack springs on some of 

 its actions. However on this whippen they also 

used a coil spring on the repetition lever.

 

    Brambach made a Piano 4'' 9' long & 4"6' wide 

having 12 mono-cords and 16 bi-cords in the bass. 

 

   I think I have a  Brambach  Whippen,  I will check 

and if so I will be glad  to send it to you.

 

Regards

and luck to you

 

Jack Wyatt
