Holes were cut through the top board and the bridges passed through. I have seen three. The first in a customer's home, the second I bought out of curiosity thinking someday ... I trashed the piano this summer, the third at another rebuilders shop, I am sure he would be more than glad to give it to anyone else who might be curious. These pianos date from early in the 20 century and are in such bad condition it is hard to tell if they ever sounded very good.
