I would like to assemble as much information as possible about the stringing scales used in early fortepianos and transitional instruments. Who knows...it might help us understand where some of the current ideas of scaling came from. Very little has been written about this. Most writers get into the development of the action but only casually mention the strings or the scaling. Thanks, Del
