[pianotech] re-fabricating a failed soundboard

[Encore Pianos]

I can't say for certain either way. I don't think I could give you a knowing
definitive answer to that. My sense would be that those things were
addressed as needed.

.

They showed us 3 boards that they had steamed out and reribbed.  

The board is steamed out from above, steam penetrating the soundboard from
above and making its way through the wood to the glue at the rim, case
veneer protected from the steam. 

***Are you certain that none of the panel glue joints were not compromised
or weakened? Seems to me they would be vulnerable.
