Dear Pat,

I redid a similar Stroube about three years ago, new block, string
scale, hammers shanks, some new ivories, Isaac hammers, balance weighted
action, dampers, touch up one the case.

It turned out to be an incredible little piano, powerful, deep and rich
bass, sweet action.

The customer did not want it refinished because he liked the old look.

He was ecstatic with it when delivered.

I changed the scale dramatically by running bichords into the middle of
the temperament octave (maybe A3), got rid of the trichords entirely.

Powerful little bugger.

Hope you the same.
