“The Soundboard: Repair, Replace or Just Leave it Alone? That is the Question”
Taught by Duncan Peterson

Have you ever been asked about a crack in a soundboard? “Is my piano ruined?” “Can it be fixed?” “Should it be fixed?”

This class will be a thought-provoking conversation in which we will begin to answer the question, should it be repaired, replaced, or should I just walk away? Come with your pencils sharpened and your questions and expertise at the ready. Some of the questions we will go over are:

  • Measuring Crown

  • Measuring Downbearing

  • Why to do it; when to do it; how to do it

See you there!

James Williams is always looking for old coin operated player pianos from brands like Seeburg, AMPICO, Wurlitzer, Coinola, Peerless, Empress, Welte-Mignon, and others. Some of these pianos are larger than other uprights, and have stained glass on the front. He is also looking for player piano rolls and other player piano parts. If you know of or come across any of these pianos or parts, he would love to know.
