Seek Mechanism for Ex-Player Piano
By Seth Weinstein

Hi, I recently acquired a Knabe grand (7-foot, 1921) which apparently had
been at one time a player, but had all the workings removed.  The only
telltale evidence remaining are the shortened ebonies and the make-shift
cover for where the mechanism sat on top of keys.

Anyone have any idea where I could get a mechanism to once again have
this as a player, or possibly info on a CD or disk operated "Disklavier"-
type mechanism.  Also, how much something like this would run?

Thanks.
