Who know what a VS-1 is?  I found one the other day with no name on the fall
board or plate.  Just VS-1 and Korea on the plate, and Royal George stamped
on a hammer.  Not a bad piano, all things considered.

The difficult, I do right away.  The impossible takes a little longer.

You are right about the model number codes. The YC model numbers are
preceeded by the letters TG so that Bergmann's model is a BTG-185. Serial
numbers for both Chinese built Webers and YCs are preceeded by the letters
CG. I'm doing a QRS pianomation  install today on theYC  BTG 175 and the
serial number is CG 0009096 and tomorrow I'm installing in a Weber WG150
serial number CG 0009427. It's difficult to imagine what the CG stands for.
(Oh my god I'm ending a sentence witha preposition)

I now have the pianomation install time down to a six hour process by
removing the keybed. I also install an Altec 5 speaker surround sound system
in each piano. Pianodisc requires about 2 addional hours.

I work for a very large dealer in the Los Angeles area. He sells both YC and
Weber. I install 8 to 10 pianomation systems a month and most are installed
into Bergmann and Weber TG 150s. I remove the keybeds on all installs that
permit it. Without looking at the fallboard I cannot tell the difference
between the the two (other than the Weber has brass caps on the bottom of
the leg).



Here's how you identify where each Weber model is made. All of them are
Young Changs, but if it is a Chinese model, the model # has a two
letter/three digit model number - as in WG-150. If it is Korean made, it has
a two letter/two digit model # - as in WG-50. If it is one of the Special
Edition models, it has a three letter/two digit model# - as in WSG-50.  The
only model unique to the Weber line is the WG-57 (a Korean built 5'7" - YC
offers a 5'9" model) and the WSG-57, which is Korean built also. In Korea,
the Weber Special Edition models are sold as Weber Prambergers. I found the
Korean website for them once, but can no longer seem to locate it.

The Reiger Kloss line is no longer made.
