Moser

piano maker

Biography

Moser is mentioned by Dolge alongside Frederick Mathushek as a builder of double soundboards glued together so that the grain of one board crossed the grain of the other at right angles. This construction made transverse vibration impossible, and Dolge notes that instruments with such boards were not inferior in volume or tone quality to any others.

Highlights

  • With Mathushek, built double soundboards with the grain of each board crossed at right angles to eliminate transverse vibration
