Aras Where are you located? Dale, Wounded or wrapped - the same. No, it shall be changed to two-chords and yes on the original bridge and the result will probably be better by changing the whole scale. Got it. The reason that I personally would try this first, is that the change of the bridge is a dramatic change, though natural, but it could cause a fall in the economic value of the instrument if the customer later wants to sell it. Not because of of a bad repair or bad sound, but simply because it is not original, and if only the string scale is changed, it will not be that hard to change the piano back. Yes this is a consideration but that is why I didn't cut the bridge end off. I agree that the B-scale is problematic. It is old fashioned and theoretically, looking at the scale construction this piano should sound really bad - like the bee who is not supposed to be able to fly (theoretically). But I like it anyway with a good set of hammers and nice voicing. There must be good reasons why so many pianists worldwide like this piano. Indeed! I will not talk about tone quality as it is like talking with blind people about colours, This I understand. It's difficult enough to talk tone color with words even in person....but we try any way. Dale and as I said I do like the S&S B as it is, but I would really like to hear your the piano with the new bridge. Always open by appointment Best regards Aras. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
