<BR>John,
<BR>
<BR>Mason and Hamlin owned Falcone for a brief period of time but stopped ma=
king them in the mid-90's. Seems as though the name was sold to Sejung=
. There are several piano names used by this company, including Hobart=
M. Cable. They bear no relation to the original Falcone pianos, other=
than having the same name. The American company didn't make uprights.

<BR>There is alot of information available on the web if you do a search for=
"Falcone Pianos."
