treble fish on steroids

[David Boyce]

Frank, how about the Pedal Lyre, a silly fanciful name related to the 
supposed appearance of the pedal suspending arrangements on early ornate 
grands?  "Lyre" in no way describes function, only appearance.

Del, I love your post, which crossed my last one.  I think that is a perfect 
way for a piano design feature to get named, and a perfect and joyous thing 
for piano etymologists of the future to research!

Best regards,

David.
