Steinway Keyboards

List,

   Does anyone have recent experience with a lot of new Steinways? Every
one of our 6 new B's & 1 D has pulley keys, anywhere from a little to
noisily obnoxious. It's being taken care of by glue sizing, but I was
just wondering if this is common and if so, why? Who makes their
keyboards now?
   I don't know if it's in the drilling or if some tech in the factory
is overeasing the keys at the balance hole.
   Once all of these, IMHO, shouldn't be needed repairs are made, I think
the pianos are going to be very good.
   Just wondering if others have had this same problem and what might be
causing it in the first place. Thanks.

Avery
