Kimball. I restrung one of those, replaced the pear-shaped knuckles with
standard type(Yamaha style flanges & shanks)had to trim the flanges to fit
on the rail. Did the same with a 5' foot Kimball new flanges&shanks to
replace pear shaped Knuckles. Abel lite hammers on both, rebushed keys, the
other usual action work, regulated. They were still sow's ears but played
and sounded a lot better than they did when they left the factory.
