Record of Pin-block replacement on Bechstein B s/n 124436. The original plan was to replace the whole pin-block, following the advice of David Jenkin. However David didn't seem to
be 100% certain that the process conserved the tone of the piano. He said the piano he replaced the pin-block on was an old
one which he did up for a friend to have in his weekender. I decided not to risk the tone of this gem, so I have provided new pin-block material inserted into the old plank.
