| Reference: Schematic of the Steinway Model M Grand Piano Reference information: This particular part unfortunately doesn't seem to be included, but the schematic might come in handy in if you need help with other grand piano elements. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 36 mins (2009-02-20 06:40:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Wait a second, maybe it is included after all - would 前框 be a part of the case cornice by any chance?
