Was that because of Broadwood's generally poor scaling and soundboard design or because of the bridge agrafe? ddf Delwin D Fandrich Piano Design & Fabrication 620 South Tower Avenue Centralia, Washington 98531 USA del at fandrichpiano.com ddfandrich at gmail.com Phone 360.736.7563 From: pianotech-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of Byeway222 at aol.com Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 2010 2:43 PM To: pianotech at ptg.org Subject: Re: [pianotech] Broadwood bridge agraffes These Broadwoods often have the Collen-Broadwood name somewhere on the piano. In Wainright's History of Broadwood this period of design is covered. All part of Broadwood's attempts to catch up with more modern technology I suppose. It has to be said though, that those uprights can sound as bad as their grands with agraffes. Richard -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
