[CAUT] Shimming the Steinway Action Stack

[G Cousins]

Added question :  Why are you the first tech, in the past 20 years, to discover this issue?  
To paraphrase Artie Johnson..... Interesting....verrrrrrrrrrrry interesting.

Re: [CAUT] Shimming the Steinway Action
Stack
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.


Correction:
A0: 3.375
C8: 4.440


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?
