WOW!!

You should be really proud of yourself. I don't think many people on this planet would have pulled this one back to life as good as you've done.

Please keep us updated, I love following this project!

Excellent job! I can hardly wait to see it with all the bells and whistles.

What is the title of the Tango? Judging by the tempo I'd guess it to be from 1914-1916 when the Tango was newly introduced to America and it was being danced as a One-Step.

Wyatt,

You have done a great job! It looks and sounds great.
It has come a long way since you started.
I can't wait to see it when it's finished.

Paal.

Wyatt,

It's absolutely stunning. Your restoration is an inspiration to those of us who think we've seen it all. I can't wait for your updates.

Felicitations, there Mr M.! I've been following this process and I've been waiting for the day. That's a maxixe you were playing, no?

Keep sending the updates.
