[CAUT] WNG parts

[Graves, Tony J.]

Conrad here's the letter. The subject line was "WNG Complimentary Parts"  I
got a couple of emails from them I trashed the first one not knowing what it
was because of the subject line and finally opened one up.  I'm sure a few
of you trashed it too because of the subject line.

Complimentary Composite Hammer Shanks and Flanges


Wessell, Nickel & Gross (WNG) invites technicians for institutional piano
programs to
sample and evaluate our new high performance composite shanks and flanges.

The WNG composite hammer shank combines a composite shank butt and a carbon
tube
shank.  The shank butt is made from the standard WNG black composite.  The
carbon
tube shank is made, via pultrusion, of fiber and epoxy.  The result is an
extraordinarily
stiff shank that does not suffer from the tendency to bend and whip like
wooden shanks.

WNG is currently offering, for both sale and evaluation, composite shanks
and flanges
for the following pianos:

                              Mason & Hamlin
                           WNG legacy actions
                                   Steinway
                                   Baldwin
                                   Yamaha

If you are interested in purchasing or evaluating WNG parts, please let us
know (contact

program,
which will include your helpful feedback and testimonial. If these parts can
