Pratt Read, the action maker, does not exist as such any more.  It
became Pratt-Win a long time ago and they were purchased by Baldwin
Piano Co. years ago.  They are now owned by Gibson Baldwin Musical
instruments, as Gibson guitars purchased Baldwin Piano very recently.

If you need something from them call Gibson Baldwin.  The parts
department of GB is who you need.  The office used to be in El Paso,
Texas, and the factory was across the river in Juarez, Mexico.  I am
told that the action parts they are producing recently are not of good
quality.  I don't know if they would even make a custom keyboard.
