key dip

[Larry Beach]

I have read about using the nickel to set sharp dip on pianos.  However,
when the pianist wants extremely small letoff and negligible drop (of course
you have to have some!) the limitations on key dip are enormous. I would
definately agree that sharp dip being below the naturals is too great, and
if the dip is set that way because of other settings within the piano, I
would move to adjust those to achieve a more acceptable sharp dip.  I wonder
what the blow distance was....
