Charles, Jack Wyatt would be a great resource for giving some guidelines about these pianos. He is here in the Dallas Texas area, ( he just gave up the SWRVP post) but travels around the country with his display of' the evolution of the action', via action models. His phone # is 972-278-9312. He has an extensive historical knowledge of good American made pianos. Jack, where are you?
