Sorry---That was meant to be sent to Robin Hufford, privately. Peace, G P.S. I DO accept the general superiority of rib-crowned boards, but NO ONE has yet explained to me why these four magnificent uprights I have ( 2 Knabes, 1 Ivers and Pond, 1 Packard ) with wide, fat ribs, all allegedly "compression crowned" and, by the general consensus here therefore "inferior", are THE BEST OLD PIANOS I HAVE EVER HEARD, BEAUTIFULLY PRESERVED, WARM, RICH, LOUD, FULL AND RESONANT! Were it just one, I could consider it an anomaly. But since ANY of these four CLOBBERS the hundreds of other pianos I have heard, tonally, I am not yet satisfied with the condemnation their construction style has reaped here. I'm no expert, but we're missing something, I'm sure. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
