[Porritt, David]

Don:

 

Thanks for the picture and the warning!!  I'll be cautious.  Was there
any sound before that opened up that would have been a clue?

All, 

 

Be very careful with the tension resonator. The attached picture tells
why. I followed the instructions to the letter but the belly rail was
not up to it for some reason. I spoke to Bob Grijalva about the problem
and he said it was a first. No clue as to why this happened. The funny
thing is it appears to have had no effect for the worse or better. I
just left it in and has been there for about a year. This piano is due a
new soundboard so the belly rail can be repaired then.
