Hi All, I am Dave Ilvedson's not-so-newbie associate. Recently, I tuned a Thomas console piano for one of Dave's clients. Dave has not tuned this piano. The piano has an aluminum frame, and very little wood used in the action. It was mostly plastic. The way the pins "felt" as I was tuning the piano made me wonder if the pinblock was even wood. The label in the case said "Thomas Organ Co." Some of the parts, like the keys, looked like they were made for an organ. I am curious to know if anybody else has had any experience with one of these pianos, and/or has some insight into the company. Thanks! Norm Dutton
