[pianotech] 1900 Hallet and Davis upright piano

[Tom Driscoll]

Agraffes on the bridge too? I've seen bridge agraffes on some old Hallet 
grands and more commonly on Sohmer grands.
In this piano the agraffe pictured replaces the pressure bar . The string 
actually terminates on the rod -v bar assembly.
 Looks like this one has been restrung with new hammers and dampers  also.
 .Thanks for the pics.
