    A couple of small wooden mallets. You need not be a musician to do some spooky shit!

    I am a musician I spose, bass and guitar drums self taught all of it. My bass playing can even be found on YouTube if you like heavy metal. This piano was here when the last owners bought the house, I have had the front cover open just enough to see some of the guts. Not much to see as the front panel won't open as it should. I'm on a mission to over time part this puppy out for razor use.

    I have gone to see Blue Man twice.
    Whacking the piano harp with a soft sledge is pretty cool!

    Would be good therapy with a few small mallets!

    First time I saw them....Oh BOY! Second time was OK. Just not as good.
    I forget who the vocalists were, Man!

    I paid beaucoups for the tickets via the local PBS station.
    On the floor. Hard and loud! Crazy!

    As I understand, the blue men change every so often. Not always the same dudes. Might be wrong there though.

    Here we go. This is my best Case Red Imp. They are shrinking. I sand the wedge flush and next thing you know it is protruding again. Looks like a tad over 4 1/4 inches from pinhole to the end...

    Here are the ones that came off it. I bought a broken-blade one for the scales a few years ago.
    Seems one set shrank lengthwise and the other is shrinking in the width!

    Tom, does your Morris Red Imp have a wedge?

    I have a 133 where the scales come together. I'll try to post a pic. I think I sent Mike a picture of the logo so he could try to scan it.
