Daryl Your friend is a bit off. A belly man is the guy who installs the soundboard/ribs/bridges assembly in the factory. He is said to "belly" the piano. Interesting at The Book of Lists (volume 1). A belly man is listed as number one on the list of most unusual jobs. Hope you could "stomach" those remarks. Charles Faulk RPT
