Per Earl Hennegir's request in the 111204 MMD for information on a
Straube player piano: from my own personal experience on rebuilding a
late model (1927) Straube, I would say, if it is later than, let's say,
a 1925 model, stay clear of it.  I spent a lot of hard-earned money
rebuilding one, and there was no amount of money that would have been
worth it in the end.

Just my $.02.
