Seeburg FT
By Art Reblitz

[ Robbie asked in 130719 MMDigest, "What's the difference between
 [ the FT and KT?"

The Seeburg FT is like a Seeburg F with pipes, plus the percussion of
an early KT (tambourine, triangle, and castanets), playing "G" rolls.
Only a few were made.  Several extant examples have been converted from
Style F pianos, but the FT was a legitimate style and a few original
ones still exist.

The percussion in an FT isn't like a G or H, because there's no room
for the drums.
