Unfortunately I have looked for the # and have not been able to locate it. The reason I bring this up is I got his # from Schaff. I'm surprised they did not pass his # along to you. I guess it depends on who you talk to @ Schaff.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=2>I once came across an old English made console other wise known as a PSO. One of the whip's had a brids eye that had flown the coup. I could not find the right whippen in the book so I called Schaff and they in turn gave me his #. When I discussed the possibility of switching a Whip out in the hi treb the customer decided he wanted the part replaced (why????). So I return the customers home remove the action to get a whip out for duplication. Suddenly the birds eye falls out from somewhere in the action onto the floor. A little supper glue and the whip was just like new.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=2>If you think you can't fix it with CA glue or epoxy as has been suggested in other posts, call Schaff back. If you specifically ask for the parts guy, (Don I think), someone may have a # for ya.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=2>Pura Vida</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=2>Steve</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV></DIV></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt Arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black"><B>From:</B> <A title=al@pebworths.com href="mailto:al@pebworths.com">Al Pebworth</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>To: </B><A title=al@pebworths.com href="mailto:al@pebworths.com">al@pebworths.com</A>;<A title=pianotech@ptg.org href="mailto:pianotech@ptg.org">Pianotech List</A></DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Sent:</B> 12/27/2006 4:42:55 PM </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> Whippen for Wurlitzer Spinet</DIV> <DIV><BR></DIV><FONT size=2><BR>OK, I know, read before sending......now this has the proper subject.<BR><B><I></I></B><BR> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: rgb(16,16,255) 2px solid">Does anyone know if there is a current source for to replace a broken whippen on a Wurlitzer Spinet?<BR><BR>Schaff says no luck.<BR><BR>Anyone have a spare from a junker?<BR><BR>Al<BR><BR>Al Pebworth<BR>Pebworth's Player Pianos<BR>Chesapeake, Va<BR>http://www.pebworths.com</BLOCKQUOTE><BR></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
