[pianotech] Strange Keys

Yup, It's a Cable Nelson and some the the keys are already cracked but not too severly.  They just seem weird.  Thanks for the information.  :)

Cable Pianos also used these as well as Story & Clarks.

Is this a Story & Clark?  I've seen this on some of them. Don't try to "ease" the key by putting a screw driver between two keys and twisting the screw driver, because the plastic will crack. (ask me how I know)

Hello,
 
Tonight I went to the store to work on a piano we are giving to a needy family who have 2 children who play very well.  I was cleaning and removed some keys that were sticking together from some gunk and when I turned them over they looked like this.  I proceeded to check and they are all narrow wood with I'll call it a plastic housing.  Weird.
