I'm not sure, but I may be in Vienna very soon, I'll talk to my friends about it for you. Personally haven't seen it in My region, but I did see a pinblock on an Imperial "fall out"!..Oops, they told me at the factory..they were having some problems with drilling the plate screw holes the correct diameter. What about those new aggrafes??? I showed my new design to I think it was George Definbough? In the early 80's at a Connecticut guild meeting, Chris Robinson was working on a new drilling procedure, and I was having trouble with agraffe termination, in (another well know brand)...anyway I just drilled a hole in the side of the Agraff, drove in a stainless steel pin..and tried it..cleanest sound I ever found in an agraff...I showed it to George...now it's in Bosendorfer. At the time he said it would be to costly to produce...Yeas right...you only got 50K to make a piano in the Factory and who's going to spend 50cents more per agraff. Anyway they're in there, today and the factory people said it was someone from the US with the idea???? I 've already made them.. Gregory SSN: 480-58-0547
