concert service Q & A

[Fred Sturm]

Hi Mark,
	I just took a look at my delux Hamburger thingees, and my memory was 
jogged: one reason I didn't get around to installing was that I couldn't 
quite figure them out. Some is obvious, some not so. You might ask Pianotek 
to supply a drawing or photo of one installed.
	Steinway does sell the "keyframe guide end pins." I don't know of another 
source, myself (there must be one).
Regards,
Fred Sturm
