I work on an amazing 1903 Steingraeber overdamper upright; I'll take a bunch of pics the next time I'm there; it's extraordinary. DA On Dec 15, 2011, at 11:23 PM, Jurgen Goering wrote: >> ...

Ibach made some lovely overdampers that were double overstrung - the bass mono-chords crossed over the bi-chords. And these overdamper actions actually have a reasonable capability for damping. The shame is very few techs are able to restore a _good_ overdamper such as Ibach or Blüthner to its full potential. > > Jurgen Goering > Piano Forte > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
