The only production figures available for the 90 Baby Grand are for total production; there is no breakdown for early, "mid" and late versions.

I seem to recall that the arch support is 3/4" thick on most 90 cabinets but may be 1/2" on later models? I honestly do not remember on this one. I believe you can purchase this piece from Dick Oliver if you do not want to go to the hassle of making your own (and it can be a hassle...been there, done that).
