I'd like to see the pictures too.=20 Regarding backscale: what you say seems very logical, but I never had = the opportunity to really experiment with this. I won't do any redesign work on this Steinway, but I might do some on = the much older Schweighofer that I have. That one is a good candinate = for a rescaled bass and maybe a new bass bridge, if not more. Please read below: . . . I am already impressed with its bass, which is damn good for a = 180cm piano. It's a really strong typically Seinway bass, you could even say = rough ;-) Very likely! What do you mean? What's the cause? While the instrument might seem to be performing well in the low bass, = it would be even better if the speaking length was 4 - 5 cm shorter with = a correspondingly increased back scale. On the Bechstein model A which is only about 4-5cm longer than teh = Steinway O, the backscale was much longer, yet the lowest notes weren't = better than on the Steinway. Maybe it's the board? Too stiff, or what else?
