<DIV>Dear List </DIV>
<DIV>Please could you help my curiosity...</DIV>
<DIV>Did anyone ever fully develop the ceramic bridge?</DIV>
<DIV>A few years ago I was working in central Europe and overheard a BBC =
radio
interview with an Australian piano designer(?) who was trying to develop =
a
ceramic piano bridge. What he said in the interview seemed really =
plausible and
inspired.</DIV>
<DIV>I hope the ceramic bridge is still on the drawing board - -better =
still, in
the piano?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If anyone has came across what I'm rambling on about I'd really =
like to
know ....</DIV>
<DIV>1 did he redesign the brige pins too ?</DIV>
<DIV>2 appearance/shape ?</DIV>
<DIV>3 accoustics - were they as good as the idea suggested ?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks </DIV>
<DIV>Alan </DIV>
