<br><font size=2 face="Calibri">A set of keys from a 1942 Steinway L arrived
in the shop for new whites and sharps. All the original tops are
GONE!...that includes the sharps. What I can find to measure is 3
½”. I checked on a 1969 Steinway M and they measure 3 5/8”.
Ebony sharps from the vendors measure 3 ¾”. Steinway &
Sons were not helpful. Does anyone have an early 1940’s L handy
to measure them for me? My concern is the distance between the back
of the sharp to the fall board. All I have is the keys….Please!!</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Calibri">Thank you to all.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Calibri">BTW. Thank you for your responses to my
pin block question. I’ll take the advice(s) to the piano and determine
the best approach, then report back to you.</font>
