Mark It's really hard to make assumptions based on moldings. By the way Ronsen supplies mahogany moldings on request. It's called sapele...or.....(suh---pee-- lee). So not necessarily Abel. In fact Charles asked me about the tone of one of his pianos in Feb at the Cal. He was going to try the Bacon felt as the consensus including mine was that the hammers in the piano were strident sounding. Dale Thanks, Del, Dale, and David. The hammers have mahogany-colored moldings, so I guess that means Abel? Interesting. The piano is in a large showroom, so I will advocate hardeners only as a last resort. Meanwhile, it'll be fun to see how far I can take it with polishing/ironing. - Mark ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
