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. Newton nhunt@jagat.com
