Seek New Ampico Rolls
By Tom Dawson

After 13 years at a "real" job I have retired and am back to player
pianos.  I just found a Marshall & Wendell baby Ampico top loader.
It has new strings, new hammers, refinished case and rebuilt player
action.  This is the first time I have ever encountered one of these
and I am so impressed: it sounds fantastic, with great expression
and lots of power -- it is a keeper!

I'm now looking for a few more Ampico rolls.  Is there anyone still
cutting new rolls?  It seems like all the old websites I visit haven't
been updated for years.

I'm also interested in a few old rolls as well.  I have purchased
a few on eBay but I'm still looking.  Thanks.
