Hi Israel Very cool you are getting good results this way. I agree with your basic standpoint that its best to deal with as unmanipulated a hammer as possible when installling new hammers. I personally choose Renner Wurzen II's with the Steinway type of tail but in raw form so that I can determine myself how much wood to take away. Gives me a much wider choice of SW's then pre-tailed hammers do. Cheers RicB
