My first Bechstein

[Don]

Hi Phil,

Do plan on using the new bottom cover. I have my first results back from
installs done this fall and I am *very* impressed. I'll know more in a year
but still am certain I will never do another install without one. Retro
fits may take some time, but I believe the client will benefit from doing so.
