[pianotech] hex size

[Leslie Bartlett]

Thank you. I read that- found the Acrosonic number, but found the Kawai one,
too.  It "looked" pretty beaten up, and I thought older than Kawai number
indicated- but it evidently just had a hard life..

Thanks again

7/32"

Pierce Piano Atlas says prior to 1959 and after 1968, use Acrosonic numbers.
After 1966, grands made by Kawai -- use Kawai numbers; still later, made by
Samick.  
There's also an R.S. Howard, made by Janssen.

What's the hex size to get into an Everett piano?  Thought I had the right
one in bag, and it turned out to be a Kawai leg hex.

 

Also  the brand "Howard", produced by Kawai.  Does one search Kawai numbers,
or Baldwin numbers, or Acrosonic numbers to learn the age of such a thing.? 

 

Thanks much
