[CAUT] Kawai GS60 Bore distance

[David Love]

Well, I figured it was board scaling and crown system, I mean, what else is
there.  What are you own suppositions, if I may ask?

I probably shouldn't, because the engineering staff does not always tell
me their reasoning for doing things a certain way.  I observe how things
are done, and make my own suppositions about the reason much of the
time.

Probably has something to do with the board scaling, crown system, and
what produces the tone we want.

In dry times the string bearing is very light in the center of our large
pianos.  Seems to work!

An you comment on the design reasons that push them in the direction of
such light bearing?

As I mentioned, I am not sure about GS models.  Current Kawai grands do
have light bearing, but it could have been higher in the GS.
