<html> <body> Dale, Something I forgot to ask. Are the pictures the before or the after? :-) Wish I could attend. I have a sister that lives in PA. I have a 70's 'B' that I hope to restring and re-hammer before I retire. It's out last one of our older ones that hasn't been rebuilt.

A.    Here all 3 pictures of the awesome sounding B that I rebuilt for Kenric Tams Teacher John McCarthy In S.F. ..............     Steinway & Sons 1980's vintage.  It has a great soundboard.     Steinway Bs however have the worst strike line problems in the piano world. The strike line may not get straightened out but the tone sure does when you get the hammer location right. Wanna see how....(shameless plug)   I'm teaching this Class "Finding the Magic Strike --Building tone the old fashioned way" at MARC as well as Teaming with Buddy Ray Negron of Ronsen. Were doing "Making Hammers the Old fashioned way"   Cheers   Dale Erwin         <img src="cid:7.1.0.9.2.20070215160120.02c690c0@houston.rr.com.3" width=480 height=360 alt="[]">  <img src="cid:7.1.0.9.2.20070215160120.02c690c0@houston.rr.com.4" width=480 height=360 alt="[]"> <img src="cid:7.1.0.9.2.20070215160120.02c690c0@houston.rr.com.5" width=480 height=360 alt="[]"> </blockquote> </blockquote></body> </html>
