cable action

[Ronny Boyd]

Hi Rick,  I had a Gulbranson that had the Woods and Brooks 90 degree inverted direct blow that I fixed up to give to my grand daughter . They are pretty rare around here. I really liked it and still don't understand why they didn't pursue that action. If you ever need the specs for regulating it let me know as they are different from a regular action.

List,
Tuned a Cable console today,ca: 1948, with an inverted type action? Jacks were horizontal and backchecks caught the hammer from above . Seemed like a better design than modern spinets . No rods, and action can be removed easily.
Any thoughts?
