Klopp counts
4 sizes
Klopp coin counters now count not
only four coins but also the four most
popular size tokens used in the indus-
try. These are the .984, .900, .882. and
.800.
Token tubes for bagging or wrap-
ping are available. This new quadruple
token versatility was added to Klopp
counters at no increase in the retail
price. Klopps can also count other
sizes of tokens with special factory
adjustments.
Totally portable, Klopp's manual
model (pictured open) weighs only 14
pounds and the electric model (pic-
tured closed) only 22 pounds. Both
models can also be used as stationary
counter-top units.

PLAY METEP, November 15. 1982
Oscar Peterson, lauded as one of the
world's greatest jazz pianists, was
heard "live in-concert" on thousands
of pianos equipped with Superscope
Inc.'s Pianocorder rep rod uci ng
system, the patented device which con-
verts an ordinary piano into an elec-
tronic player using special cassette
tapes.
"Body and Soul," the jazz classic
that has become Peterson's trademark,
is the title song on his Pianocorder
tape. Other selections include "Back
Home In Indiana," "Tenderly,"
1
"Misty," and "Mack The Knife." Duke
Ellington tunes, "Take The A Train,"
and "Lush Life," are also featured.
"Body and Soul" is the fifth release
for Pianocorder's "Contemporary
Artists" series, following perfor-
mances by Roger Williams, Peter
Nero, George Shearing, and Steve
Allen. There are more than 300 addi-
tional tape cassettes available for the
Pianocorder in a wide range of
ragtime, pop, jazz, and classical styles.

Strength
on cue
Royal F argues Associates has devel-
oped a new pool cue of a patented
epoxy and fiberglass construction to
make it virtually indestructable and
totally resistant to warpage, company
officials claim.
Royal Forgues a·ffers a three-year
warranty against breaking, bending,
warping, or splitting. The sticks have
been location tested for more than
three years.
The sticks come with a standard
screw on tip but slip-ori tips do fit and
are available. The sticks are 57 inches
long and are in the medium weight
category, making them suited to both
tall and short players alike . Rubber
butts snap in without a screw so there
is no loss to the butt due to the screw
breaking.
