If you can improve the sound by applying pressure to the bridge or bridge pins, you might have a loose bridge. The tuning bass should not stay in tune worth a darn in that case...But, you probably just need a new set of strings...what does the bridge cap look like?

Piano: Baldwin Hamilton Studio school piano - Probably 45+ years old. The bass (only the bass ) is tubby, rattles, bad sounding notes, vibrations, etc. I am assuming it is the bass bridge that is loose. Cannot see any separation. I do not know exactly how to repair this. Anyone help?? Thanks so much!
