Seek Repair of Reproducing Piano Electric Motor
By Doug Helfman

Dear MMD,  My Welte Licensee's original electric motor (Holtzer-Cabot
110 VAC, 2.3A, 60 Hz. 1150 rpm) at best needs new internal wiring and
most likely needs to be replaced.  Does anyone have any suggestions for
a repair source in the Baltimore MD area, or more realistically, a
source for replacement?  The Grainger catalog has a myriad of motors,
but do they have an acceptable replacement?  Their catalog unfortunately
does not specify sound characteristics.
