I believe you have it right. I think he worked for them, then bought them. Alan Barnard Salem, MO Original message From: Farrell To: "Pianotech List" Received: 5/1/2008 9:42:18 AM Subject: Re: e bay-- where NOT to place the piano I thought Charles Walter bought Janssen near of after it had pretty well finished its run (on the senses). I'd be interested in knowing more. Terry Farrell ----- Original Message ----- It doesn't matter, guys, read the description: it's a QUALITY Janssen. This makes it extremely rare and unique. Interesting history, Janssen ... as I understand it, it was once owned by the Conn (trumpet and trombone) people with Charles Walters as the chief designer/production supervisor. If that's right, he must have found out how to make good pianos by an intensive study of mediocrity. Alan Barnard -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
