No, no. Look at the hitch pins that are visible. The picture was taken from the tail end of a straight-strung grand. -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org]On Behalf Of Alan Sent: Tuesday, March 29, 2005 5:01 PM To: 'Pianotech' Subject: RE: Strange bridge The picture, as it opens, is horizontally inverted (but it is rightside up). It makes more sense when you flip it, so I did that and have attached it here. I assume three things: 1.) That the treble bridge makes a fairly hard right turn somewhere above the area pictured. 2.) That this piano has been rebuilt, and nicely, too. 3) That this duplex must sing like a drunken glee club. Alan R. Barnard Salem, MO -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org] On Behalf Of Jean-Jacques Hébert Granas Sent: Tuesday, March 29, 2005 5:19 PM To: pianotech@ptg.org Subject: Strange bridge Hello one and all, Havn't posted here in a very long time. Regards to everyone. Just thought I would send you all a picture of the strangest bridge arrangement I have ever seen. The angles of the two bridges relative to one another are most puzzling. Can't figure out its placement, whether its an upright or a grand, and especially the function of the funny felt sleeves on the bass strings. Anyone care to enlighten me?
