Hi to all still here.... Got one in the shop right now - 1890something(too lazy to look up right now). 85 note jewel. My re-stringing book says it's a 59 note plain wire scale..the piano says it's a 60 note scale. Dave Smith (thanks Dave) de-strung and took numbers from the beckets, but I am wondering if anyone has worked on these in recent memory and might have a plain wire stringing scale worthy of sharing..? I can tell you it's gonna be hard to go wrong with this one..it's a beauty now. I can't wait to hear how it sounds with a fresh set of wire on it. ..it looks like Abel Lights were put on it..in the 70's according to the owner..not the choice I would have made, but that's what's there...and that's NOT a knock on Abels..I like them..I just wouldn't have put the Lights on this piano. Any info would be greatly appreciated. -Phil Bondi (Fl.) phil@philbondi.com
