Hi All, I provided a purchase consult today on a 1911 Ludwig upright. Most items were looking normal for an old wornout piano: Pins were moderately snug, no broken strings, 1/2 step flat, top of plate bulging toward player.... The top of the pinblock is covered with a lovely cap that would not look so lovely had I used my wonderbar to remove it. Am I correct in thinking the manufacturer did not build the plate with the convex feature and that, indeed, the pinblock has moved forward? It reminds me of the Looney Tunes cartoons where the water is building up behind the door that is bulging wildly, waiting to burst. Dave Davis,Assoc.
