Alicia,<div>My impression of Ukraine/Bylerussian uprights of this vintage is that while they may *look* OK, they are often quite deficient. It's understandable that you *hoped* the problem is as simple as adjusting strike point but as others have written there's a whole lot of other stuff that needs to be correct (scaling, soundboard, bridges, bass string quality, hammer quality, etc.).</div> <div>"Ya can't tell a book by its cover."</div><div>Patrick Draine<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, May 29, 2008 at 2:24 PM, A E <<a href="mailto:eve_ane@hotmail.co.uk">eve_ane@hotmail.co.uk</a>> wrote:<br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> <div> William,<br>  <br> Upright piano, 43inches tall, made in Ukraine in early 90's, general condition of the piano is ok<br> <blockquote> <br></blockquote></div></blockquote></div><br></div>
