Seek Tubing Chart & Test Roll for Welte-Mignon
By Tim Baxter

Dear MMDers,  I recently purchased an Original "Welte-Built" grand
(the one with the spool box above the keys, manufactured by the
Welte-Mignon, Inc., and using an Estey Piano).

Keystone sells a technical manual for this piano, but the tubing
chart they sell is for the Welte Licensee.  The same is true of the
test rolls available from Keystone and Player Piano Company (for
Licensee, not 'Original "Welte-Built"').

Does anyone have a tubing diagram for this piano they could photocopy
for me?  Does anyone have a test roll they could loan for copying by
the Tonnesens?  Can my exceedingly-skilled restorer get by with the
ancillary Licensee products, i.e., can we use the Licensee tubing
diagram and test roll?

Thanks,

Tim Baxter
Atlanta, Georgia
