Ric, I'm not sure I agree that the topic has been overblown, perhaps overexposed. Still, I prefer this to secretive and the the discussion is far from vitrolic, despite whatever good-natured jabs we may take at one another. (Besides I have it from a good inside source, names will not be revealed, of some R,C&S boards that have developed killer octave problems and other tonal problems after 5 to 10 years,so we need not lead anyone out of the festival :). So again I think we can all agree that it never boils down to just one isolated part of the process. Nor do I mean to dilute the debate; we don't have a choice but to isolate the steps of our construction methods to try to derive some conclusions as to what produces a certain type of tone. Anyway, I babble... Jude Reveley, RPT Absolute Piano Restoration, LLC Lowell, Massachusetts (978) 323-4545 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
