Actually the first double wrapped Mono-chords I experienced on a 9 ft. Stwy was for me a happy accident. I simply gave Chip at Areledge a memo saying unless further notified send all Bass mon-chords double wrapped. I actually didn't mean for him to do the 9 ft this way but when I got back to the shop.... they were on and it turned out I like it. It was David Andersens Stwy D ....ask him his opinion.

I specify "monochords double wrap where possible", and haven't seen a double wrap come back for a 9' piano yet. Ron N -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
