its depending on * open strings lenght * the room issue (key sizes) * materials * daringness about Materials and daringness: one of the problems is the strenght of the joint between the slides and the keys: the position of the slides is fixed - if the keys are designed wider they move away from the slides and the joint gets weaker: the use of stronger materials might help, a more daring maker might decide for a wider keyboard and weaker joints.
