Hi David,<br>
Quite easy really, change some lines on a drawing, send for a trial
order, and just like magic the balance rail holes change position.

Once we have settled on what is needed, we will give more
details.<br><br>

<dd>Hi David,<br>
<dd>
Knabe grands have a laminated maple rim, Renner action, Italian Ciresa
sound board, Canadian Bolduc pin block. Renner blue hammers. Mapes bass
strings. They are regulated and voiced in California.<br>
<dd>I'm currently working on changing some of the action ratios to
further improved performance. <br>
<dd>Dip is currently at 11.2mm and is being changed to 10mm.<br>
<dd>Very positive response from pianist thus far. Detailing is the
best that I have seen from Korea thus far and will get better.<br>
<dd>6ft 4" is reverse engineered from late 20's scale. Will be
introduced at NAMM.<br>
<dd>But I may be the wrong person to ask.<br><br>
