List,

I had the pleasure of tuning a Hamburg S and S B the other day.  What a 
pleasure(especially in comparison to some of the beater grands I get to work on).  
A wonderfully clear tone throughout.  While a minor regulation will be 
necessary in the not too distant future, the action offers high levels of power and 
control.

I know that the design in these is essentially the same is in the American 
version, but the final product is far more refined.  They are not at all the 
same animal.  I know that German spruce is used in the soundboard, but what about 
the other materials?  Anybody familiar with the differences?  I didn't have a 
chance to pull the action, but I was curious about that as well:  Steinway or 
Renner?

Inquiring minds want to know....
