[pianotech] Stwy A (6' 1") speaking lengths

[Alan Eder]

Thanks for the info, Gene.  Looks like you put the long bridge back in the same relative position to the plate, but shortened up the speaking lengths in the bass by 12 to 16 mm.  I would be very interested in knowing what led you to make this change?


Thanks again,


Alan Eder
