SCHAFF STRING MERIT.
Piano bass strings made by the Schaff Piano String
Co., Chicago, have for years been appreciated by
piano manufacturer's desirous of volume and deep
tonal effects of their instruments. Schaff piano bass
strings admirably aid in the processes of every
acoustic system devised by piano makers for the
improvement of piano tone and the strings are found
in many of the country's leading instruments. The
methods of manufacture in the plants of the Schaff
Piano String Co., at 2009-2121 Clybourn avenue, have
always been marked by the realization of the impor-
tance of fine strings in the character of pianos. The
expertness of the employes and the use of the most
up-to-date machinery and tools are guarantees of
good faith to the piano manufacturers. The purpose
j of the company always has been to produce strings
of unquestionable merit.
