The original scales vayied. They  tried many sizes of wire at the tenor 
bass break. New Masons have some wrapped  string there & highly suggest a few 
unisons there if its not too late,  other wise it doesn't matter what size 
wire you use they all sound  insuffieicent. ASk me how.........If I have time 
I'll post one

I am working with my mentor on a rebuild, an M&H "A" #30386 (Pierce 1922).  
New soundboard is in, and we  kept original bridges.  Judging by the 
strings removed, someone made  interesting modifications to the scale.  We'd like 
to go in and do some  scale design ourselves for fun and education.


I found a 2005 pianotech reference by Del Fandrich on  how he has taught 
approaching this particular model, so have inquired there.  If anyone has 
original scale information readily available, it would  assist our efforts.  Any 
pointers appreciated as well!  
 


Thanks,
