list...@listserv.albany.edu is the server on which you can subscribe
to the Harpsichord List. There are some real expert makers there,
and although they generally deal with "real" (i.e. historically
informed) instruments, someone may have the information you need.
>From your description, it sounds a little like the Baldwin instrument
of the 1960s, which also had electronic pickups.

Baldwin bought the design from Cannon Guild.
