That is because of the problem mentioned with the strike line (mod C and mod O for what I know). I have the scale somewhere with the original line, it seems to have been corrected partially on the frame (different capo placement on the C I had) but still the end of the 3d section is glued with an inward angle so the strike is 5 mm nearer the capo (still glued at 130 ;>) Bests Isaac OLEG Entretien et reparation de pianos.
