List,

One of my regular clients has a Howard baby grand piano that was 
reconstructed several years ago in Portland.  I am not sure of the rebuilders (Gans, or 
something like that), but the scaling design was by Del, complete with a booklet 
that thouroughly outlines the trials and tribulations of scaling small grand 
pianos.  I did not have time to read the whole thing today at my appointment, 
but I'd like to get hold of a copy.  Del, do you have any of these lying 
around for sale?  Maybe if I show it to people who have 4 ' 10" grands, they'll 
understand why their pianos will never sound quite in tune.

Interesting piano, quite a nice job.  The customer spent at least 5 times 
what the piano was worth to have the work done.  I still can't hear a fundamental 
in A0, though....:-)
