List,
Anyone know where I can get a hold of a sostenuto rail (attaches to the
back of the action cavity) for a style '50' 1940's vintage Knabe grand?
(Probably the same as M&H of the same vintage.)  The trapwork is still
there, but where the rest of it went is anybody's guess.  Private
customer is eager and willing to pay to have the sostenuto system
restored on this instrument stored in a barn.(!) Plenty of spiderwebs
and some pidgeon droppings, but aside from the odd bit of rust, the darn
thing is just fine.  Only in California......

Thanks in advance,
Greg Granoff

Private responses OK.
