Dave does raise a critical concern.   While I have adapted an Ampico
stack to another piano of similar overall dimensions but with different
breaks, I have never attempted to adapt a Duo-Art stack to a different
piano.   I agree with Dave and would also appreciate hearing from
others who may have had experience at doing this.   As I mentioned
earlier, I do have a complete mechanism from out of a Weber 6' Duo-Art
grand, and am now wondering if I can only fit that stack back into only
another Weber of equal size and breaks.

Does anyone on this list know of rebuilders who have done this?
Perhaps rebuilders who are not on this list?

Regards,

Terry
