I • Why the Maixi and Risch piano action is ne\ er thrown out of alignment. THE regulating rail is the backbone of the action onit the level of the keys depends. In most pianos this rail is merely awooden bar which is affect- ed by all changes in climate. It warps or twists and throws the whole action out of alignment so that it loses its responsiveness of touch and the hammers cannot strike the strings accurately. Mason and Risch� The piano with a soul. In the Mason and Risch piano action the regulat- ing rail is of wood encased in brass. This supplies a wooden bed for the screw eyes yet prevents all possibility of warping on account of atmospheric changes. To this regulating rail isdue, to a great ex- tent, the perfect alignment of the Mason and Risch piano action. After years of use a Mason and Risch piano is dust as sensi- tively responsive to the touch and as perfect in action as when it first left our warerooms.
