After looking at quite a number of pictures of both grand and upright motors and mounts designed by Ampico, I recalled the one I have in my Chickering, with top-loading Ampico, which is quite different. Below are links to pictures of the motor and mount. http://www.playerpianosupplies.com/ampico/chickering-motor-1.jpg http://www.playerpianosupplies.com/ampico/chickering-motor-2.jpg http://www.playerpianosupplies.com/ampico/chickering-motor-3.jpg It makes me think that Ampico wasn't satisfied with the quietness of any of their previous motor mounts so they designed another one. I can't explain why it works so well at dampening the vibration noise of the motor, but it sure works great! Musically, John A Tuttle Player-Care.com Brick, New Jersey, USA
