Thanks for the pic. R U sure the leather on the tails wasn't added by a tech to improve checking? It suggests an interesting experiment for worn-out grand backchecking because it would be easier than replacing the actual backcheck leather. Whaday'allthink?

Here is a pic of that Rönish checking arrangement. The piano is from the 1920 and I have no reason to believe that what you see is not original. Yet, see the condition of the leather ! And this is in the tenor section, where you usually have the parts worn out. And the noise to catch strength ratio is the best I have ran across. Curiously enough, the rest of the piano is kind of cheap. Best regards. Stéphane Collin. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
