Has anyone had success with the new "improved" Steinway hammers? The factory has changed the way the hammers are made, even going as far as placing a notice in each set warning technicians to listen to the hammers before juicing, or something to that effect. The only problem I've noticed is that juicing after they are hung doesn't produce the fairly consistent results as with the old hammers. Anyone have success with these? If so, what seems to work?
