More CC vs RC questions was RE: Killer Octave & Pitch

[Arnold Duin]

Richard,

Almost everything is doable, but I don't think it will be very easy to 
do.
You have of course all kinds of obstacles like the belly rail, keybed 
and what have you. The one thing you want is the fish construction to 
be as sturdy and solid as possible with no gaps or what soever and that 
will be a hard task to accomplish when you can't properly see what you 
are doing. Of course It would be nice to see what the difference is in 
a given instrument.
The thing I find is interesting is that the fish construction suddenly 
turned up again. I first saw Ron Overs using it and at the same time I 
saw it  at Steingreabers in   Europe. Maybe it  was something in the 
air.


Greetings Arnold
