Really?  A one inch plus difference in spread from one end of the action to the other?  Wow...

I'm working on a 90's M where the action spread is 4.375 on A0 and
4.440 on C8. I'm placing a double thickness of sandpaper in the bass
and tenor and possibly one strip in T 1 & 2.
I have to check the first note in the top treble section for spread.

Where is the Quality Control?

Two leads in the bass, out at the front of the key - so much for "Accelerated Action".
This action definitely will get Turbo wips and the leads moved. DId I mention that
it is HARD to play?
