It certainly is. I'm not sure the volume goes up  after the attack, 
but a lot of other stuff sympathetically kicks in after  a second or 
so when the soundboard doesn't waste what energy there  is. It 
gets... richer, like expecting milk and getting a  shake.

  I like this description better.   It's is like more horsepower Or a notch 
higher or  whatever
 It's more better sounding.
than the Old design




I got the plate back last  Monday, looking like a 
cinder. I'd loved to have done some needed  modifications, but It 
wasn't being fixed - just un-broke. Spent two long  days and half of 
a third filling, sanding, spraying, lettering, sweating,  and wishing 
I was somewhere  else. 
  This is one reason I prefer the loch-n- stich  repair.  These guys sell do 
it yo sef repair kits & it doesnt' look  that tough even with the plate in the 
piano. Of course there is still the  filling & usual body work  to attend to 
after wards. I know people weld  plates but the guys at loch-n- stich say it 
really isn't possible or at least  risky  Huh?  any way. 

. He'll  get back 
to me... Yea. Maybe the next one I get in will be a real job. I'm  
curious how a mo-defiled M performs, but this one wasn't  it.
  I'm just doing up the rib scale & cut-off  on an M now & I'm also 
interseted in the outcome.
  After the stupefying success of the O I my  enthusiasm is frankly 
 re- energized.  



Looking forward to KC to rest up for a couple of days. Might  even 
get my hands clean by week's end.
   Have fun
   Dale
