String breakage in Charles Walter

[Don Mannino]

Piano model?

Treble or bass strings?

What is the hammer condition?

Where is it used - what style of music?

No, I have never heard of Walter pianos having any string breakage issues, 
certainly no more than any other piano.  Well designed scales.
