[pianotech] WNG Parts Question(s)

[Dale Erwin]

 Right on Terry
  Everybody who is anybody knows that rebuilt Steinway's are more like real Steinway's should be when they are done with non Steinway parts  LOL  
 Hey Custom rebuilt anything is usually a better product. Duh. ie. Cars,houses,equipment of all kinds.
 Will, love to hear/play it

NOT being a Steinway? Like their Kelly plates (non-S&S up until recently); like their Kluge keys (I think that may have changed); like their Mapes bass strings; like their Renner hammers (some years - were there maybe Renner action parts for some years after the Teflon thing?). Whatever. What makes a Steinway a Steinway is a dead killer octave and a sluggish action!  (Okay, okay - only some are afflicted with these.....).


Good Grief!!!

As for the Steinway "A" with these parts...that's about as far afield as it can get, to NOT being a Steinway. Not recommended for any resale situation, per most Dealers I know.
