Fascinating rebirth of the historic straight-strung piano - but why the Steinway action rails and cloth?

They must have paid patent fees to the fat cats of 57th Street in NYC

Daniel Barenboim is one of his client I guess~?:)

Will there be any sold over here in the USA?

[@michaelromero1873]

what is better about straight strung vs over strung?

[@24mkim1]

Over strung is always superior

[@cangjie12]

With straight stringing you get the proper balance in volume as well as tone. In overstrung pianos the bass sounds loud and flabby.
Regulating and working with overstrung is also a pain in the ass, having all those slanted hammers.

Ik spraak niet nederlands. But it sounds kinda beautiful
