Hello Phil,


      The Steinway you speak of is a
" round tail A " slang !!  with 85 notes.
 It has a  "hook"  bridge that carries two  
two string and seven three string unisons 
all wrapped.
     
    Many believe that this  was the piano 
that "made"  Steinway.  Its, production began
in 1878.  The first of the 88 note models
were built in 1892.  

     The "Square" tail  A,s  without the hook 
bridge began production in 1896/97. This
A was discontinued in 1913.

      In 1913 the 6'4"  A  was put into 
production then discontinued in 1947. 

    As a side note many, including me, think 
this was  a mistake a  bad mistake.  
The 6'4" A is now being built in Germany.

Regards 
Jack Wyatt
