[CAUT] topstick

Holly was the last one I know about as well from some parts in late spring 
this year.

The last time I sent an email order it was answered by Holly at steinway.com, 
but the order I sent to parts at steinway.com

Shannon's been gone a few years, and Chad Fry left this spring. Terry

his card where I am now.

E-mail Shanon Rebele at SRebele at steinway.com. You'll get through much 
faster. I do believe the "topstick tongue" is the same as the short stick, 
and it comes in a satin ebony finish. 
 
 
BTW, when I was at UA, a lot of voice performers wanted the lid lower than 
the short stick, but not all the way down. So for a while they put a black 
board eraser under the lid. Then someone suggested I cut a nickel lid prop 
down to about 5", and screw it on the lid prop. Worked great. I put one on 
three of the performing pianos, and they were used constantly

I need to order a short stick for a Steinway D.   In the parts catalog, I 
see a 
topstick tongue.  Is that the same thing as the short stick? 
Also, it comes as ebony finished if wanted - I wonder if that will be 
gloss or 
satin.   If it's high polish I'll have to rub it out to a satin.  Steinway 
parts 
dept. just had an answering machine and they haven't called back.
