[CW] Fwd: key photo

[Rick Dettinger]

Thanks, John
Yes, Alberto is a world class craftsman, not unlike another Italian  
instrument maker 300 years ago.  I checked his website, and it looks  
like he is no longer making keys with a brass finish.  They are all  
chrome plated, like the J36.  I kind of like the brass, but chrome on  
a black base looks nice, too.
