Seek Ampico A Parts
By John McClelland

Greetings all, I am moving forward on an Ampico A restoration (really,
the only thing attached to the piano when I got it was the stack and the
loud and soft pedal pneumatics; everything else was gone).  I've found
most everything that I need with several exceptions, so I'm turning
to all the diehard parts hoarders among our ranks.

Specifically I need the small levers that fit on the left hand control
switches in the drawer; one expression regulator pneumatic spring, the
T's that go between the regulated vacuum and the expression regulator
pneumatics, the loud/soft pedal valves and the dual plug electric connec-
tion box that fits by the motor.  I'd be willing to trade Welte rolls,
Ampico B switch levers (including the large one), or pretty much
anything but my first born.

This is another Knabe that has been rescued from a mute fate, with
a lot of help from everyone.  Thanks all.

John McClelland
