Seek Tubing Diagram for Early Ampico Upright
By Gary Heckman

I have a Haines upright Ampico reproducing piano for sale.  The early
Ampico action is either a Type 2A or 2B or Type 3, dating from 1915
to 1920.

Everything has been rebuilt, however, I am having a problem with the
tubing.  The piano plays but does not reproduce as it should.  I would
like to know if anyone has a tubing chart for this early Ampico as the
Model A guide tubing chart does not correspond with this type of
action.

Best Regards,
