[CAUT] Chickering quarter grand for next to nothing.

[Richard Brekne]

Hi Greg.

I got a couple off list posts full of lots of good encouragement and a 
deal of information that will be helpful.  I understand Jon points out 
there are some special bits about re-working them.  My own view of their 
tone on the other hand is different then his.  They are one of the 
better small grand designs tonal wise from the period in my mind. Voiced 
appropriately, they take on a very nice rounded and full sound... tho to 
be sure, these are not meant  to sit in a very large concert room.

If you wish, I will send along one post in particular that you may find 
encouraging.  I have no qualms about rebuilding this one, and have done 
a couple earlier on... tho I havent had to replace a pinblock on one 
yet.  I guess I feel like if they did it... well I can do it :)

Cheers

    I just made an agreement , in principal, to rebuild one of these. It
    will get everything. I'm wondering now if this was wise. Any thoughts,
    other than these?

    all the best,
