Seek Tubing Diagram for 85-note Lipp Claviola
By Colin Mills

Does anyone have a tubing diagram for a Lipp Claviola (1915-1920)
or any other technical information for it?  This is an 85-note piano
with an 88-note tracker bar and lots of Tee connectors on shattered
rubber in between!  Lots of photos are at

It's a very interesting player, having all the pneumatics out of the
way, below the keyboard allowing for a narrower body -- easier to fit
through a doorway but I suspect that it will not be easier to repair.
