Original sentence: A company, Steinberger Sound, was duly set up to manufacture the basses and later the guitars on a larger scale at Newburgh, New York; however demand always outstripped supply and the company was eventually sold to Gibson in 1987, although Steinberger remained part of the company for some time.By not forcing guitarists to detune to play lower notes, the Trans Scale allows guitarists to maintain consistent tone while playing in a lower-than-standard range.Enthusiasm for the instruments has now revived to a sufficient extent that they are again being produced and sold, although the newer versions share few commonalities with the original "Newburgh" designs.Ned Steinberger has operated a company called "NS Design" since 1990 and produces electric violin family instruments: double basses, cellos, viola, violin.The first Steinberger basses were produced in 1979 in Brooklyn, New York by Ned Steinberger, essentially alone
Edited sentence: A company, Steinberger Sound, was duly set up to manufacture the basses and later the guitars on a larger scale at Newburgh, New York; however demand always outstripped supply and the poorly managed company was eventually sold to Gibson in 1987 who immediately closed the Newburgh plant and began making far inferior versions in-house.By not forcing guitarists to detune to get lower notes, the Trans Scale allows guitarists to maintain consistent tone while playing lower-than-standard notes.Detuning loosens the strings, changing the timbre of the notes played.Enthusiasm for the instruments has now revived to a sufficient extent that they are again being produced and sold, although the newer versions share few commonalities with the original "Newburgh" designs, and are widely regarded as substandard and vastly inferior to the original product.Ned Steinberger has operated a company called "NS Design" since 1990 and produces expensively-priced electric violin family instruments: double basses, cellos, viola, violin.The first Steinberger basses, as opposed to the NS instruments built with luthier Stuart Spector, were produced in 1979 in Brooklyn, New York by Ned Steinberger, essentially alone.This is analogous to the situation Leo Fender found himself in after the sale of his company to CBS in 1965
