KEYSTONE OF j
Kimball Piano
STRUCTURE.
The szale of the Kimball Piano is the keystone of its unsurpassazle quality, the founda
tion of its great musical worth, the cause of its popularity with artists and musicians. Perfect
piano scale-making is a mathematical problem figured out by sound waves to the merest fraction
of a sezond. Not all piano makers strive for perfection along this line (many making no pre
tense), but out of the few who have nearly reajhed the goal,
Kimball is Prominent.
One of the most perfect musical scales is displayed in the zultivated human voice. An
inperfect scale piano is like a person who cannot sing correctly—it’s worse because all do not
jlaim to sing. It costs money to cultivate the voice, it costs more money to perfect a piano
I scale. The cost to produce a perfect Kimball scale has been no less than that of other of the
recognized artistic pianos of the world, yet because of the advantages of the largest output
from any factory, we are able to sell the Kimball at a very moderate price, quality considered
! The Kimball System and easy payment plan brings it within reach of all.
