[pianotech] Young chang date of manufacture

[Tom Driscoll]

Paul,
 Thanks for the help. Yes of course the newer spread is not 133.5---typo on my part. This action has the letoff buttons at 90° to the rail . Thanks !
I'll use the 113.5 mm spread .

  (Newer than 1992 has a spread of 113.5, not 133.5!!)

  The two actions can be identified by the angle of their let off buttons; the newer ones are 90 degrees from the hammer rail, and the older ones angle back in toward the whippens.

    Dear listees,
       I'm installing replacement action brackets on a Y.C. grand tonight. The directions call for two different action spreads based on date of manufacture and I left my atlas in a customers home today.The directive calls for a spread of 112.5mm until models newer than 1992 which have a spread of 133.5mm .
     Could someone post the date on this piano for me tonight?
