2011-08-06 - Updated through online information from Randy Terry. -Database Manager

2013-04-22 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -Database Manager

2015-11-29 - Updated through online information from Randy Terry. -- In 2014 the 8 general thumb pistons were augmented with toe studs duplicating the thumb pistons. 1-4 to the left of the swell pedal, and 5-8 to the right. A rather simple change that has made playing the repertoire so much easier. -Database Manager
