BAD, BADD, PIANO

I just gave the CA treatment to a 1924 Starr console, and I was sorry I did, 
because it sounded so bad after tuning.  Wessel, Nickel, Gross action, but 
this one must have been designed mostly by Gross...

The bridges looked like a decent design, but the touch and tone were awful. 
The tuning pins all had about a 3/32" gap between them and the top of the 
pinblock.
