I didn't look real close at the wippens - they are new. They are the model 
that has the silk strings that hold the end of the wippen springs. It seemed as 
though things would regulate reasonably well. She needs key leveling, clean up 
letoff and drop, and she has a mile of aftertouch. I didn't have my gram 
weights with me, but the action seemed a bit heavy.

 
I think a person could specialize in Chickerings and have a very interesting 
career. Talk about variety....


I hadn't noticed the left-handed opening piano - I see that now. It looks 
like a modernish piano - I'll bet the picture is just inside-out.

Tongue in cheek. If the fallboard decal hadn't been photo-shopped out, it 
would have given it away.
