Ampico "B" Upright Includes Ampico "A" Parts
By Charles Schubert

Bob Stewart mentioned another MMDer who owns a Marshall & Wendell,
ser. no. 111310.  I am the person he mentioned.  Mine is the same
style as Bob's Ampico but has "B" valve blocks with a complete "A"
expression system.

I started to rebuild it in the summer of 2006 and then my wife died
12/13/06.  I have not had the inspiration yet to finish it.  I will
some day soon.  I think it is unique and a little before Bob's Ampico.
Because the piano is so short there is no primary chest, thus the "B"
valves.
