1912 Weber Themodist Might Be Duo-Art
By Spencer Chase
A Duo-Art is a Themodist with control from the roll. It has
Accompaniment and Theme regulators, usually an electric pump,
and definitely a tracker bar with the eight expression level holes
and two Theme control holes. The hand control levers may be similar
on various Duo-Art and Themodist pianos, but without the Duo-Art
tracker bar and regulators it is definitely not a Duo-Art.
Don't despair, a Weber Themodist is a wonderful instrument if
you take out the vacuum cleaner motor and play it the way it
was intended.
Best regards,
