[pianotech] Stringing question and puzzler for the day

[Stephen Grattan]

I observed that.  The stringer skipped a hitch pin 27 pins from the top.  If I was to skip the first one it seems to put the side bearing where it belongs - though I haven't been able to get under the bass strings as of yet.

Hi,
I  SUSPECT THAT THE SIDE BEARING ON THE BRIDGE PIN WOULD CHANGE IF YOU FOLLOWED NORMAL PROCEDURE.

I have never seen a pattern of stringing like what I found on this piano. Should I copy it or go to a more traditional pattern?  Also - can you identify the piano?  I know what it is - but it seems like a good puzzle.
