[Rhodes22-list] Actual Rhodes Question - electrical systems

[Wally Buck]

Brad,

Thanks, I have a book by Don Casey that should get me through the basics. I 
also have a friend that is an EE with years of practical experience to help. 
The info I am looking for is more specific to the Rhodes 22 rather than 
wiring in general.

I am wondering if it will be a bitch to pull cable through the headliner on 
a R22. Also if anyone came up with a nifty place to mount box on the R22. I 
like the hinge door access. Steve in AR sent me some photos of his set up 
and I liked the way it turned out.

As I get into this I may have more questions or break down and buy a thicker 
book.

Wally
