You will have to remove theold strip and fit the new ones. Thiswill involve making provision for the verticalmetal brackets mounting the action in the piano. Use Elmer'sCarpenter's Glueto attachthe new felt strip to the old bar.SH300 $ 13.65 eachRinkyTink or Mandolin Kit for UprightsThis kit has everything needed to add a rinky tink sound to your upright piano.It includes a cable pull to mount underthe key bed which you can pul tocontrol the device.
This kit can also be used to mount the quieting PracticeMute above. But, we cannot alter theoriginal kit to reduce the price.This kit will require some detailed fitting of the leather and tabs which youwillbe required to attach.It cannot be made ahead of time to fit any piano at randombecause the string placement of all pianos varies frompiano to piano. If you arenot an intuitive person, or if you do not have a friend with mechanical talents,you should not try this. We CANNOT promiseyou success unless you are willingto take responsibility for your success. We will not refund your money if youin any way start to modify the kit parts.Having made this rather ominous disclaimer,I must say that the kit is very well planned, and, as far as I know,this is the only kitof itskind available at this time.
It was designed by a man with 50 years in the trade.Complete instructions are provided withthe kitDA842$ 152.50Do-It-Youself Rinky Tinkor Mandolin Kit- THIS IS A CONVERSION KITYou MUST alreadyhave a practice mute in your piano to use this kit.Also, you will have to innovate and make theproducts work for you. I cannotwrite instuctions which will cover anything you will run into. This means youwillneed to determine wherethe strings are in relation to the leather strip AFTER youinstall the leather strip. You may do this by attachingcarbon paper to the back ofthe leather strip facing the leather and run the front of the leather with a hardobject.Remove the carbon paper,and cut between the marks made by the strings on theleather. You may also rub the strings with chalk and rub thefront of the leather.Thiswill tell you where to cut the leather strip. You must have the confidence toinnovate because I cannot predict allthe variables you may encounter. Be sure toclamp the metal tabs so that they are in a straight line, and positionthe mute bar so thatthe tabsare just barely BELOW the actual point the hammer hits the strings.
This willprevent destruction of the hammers overtime.3 inch by 48 inch leatherstrip and 100 metal tabs to attach to the strip.Part NumbersDA68 and DA848 $ 39.00 totalPlayer Piano Repair InformationTHEBEST BOOK FOR PLAYER PIANO RESTORATIONPartDescription:PartNumber PricePLAYERPIANO SERVICING AND REBUILDINGBy ARTHUR REBLITZA superb book that touches on every aspect of its title. 8-1/2' x 1 1',216 pages, profusely illustrated with fine photographs and diagrams.Themost comprehensive book on the subject ever written.
