Hello Everyone, I am trying to finish up regulating a 5'8'' Kimball grand which is about 12 years old & has been used at a local college. It was an unplayable mess when I took on the job & I have now a very nice feeling & playing instrument. I have regulated many grands & this is the first time I have run into this problem. The action works just fine & I have the let off set at 1/8". Hammer height from strings at rest is 2 9/16 & dip is a tad over 3/8"Escapement is fine & the jack is about 1/8" from the rep lever felt when the key is pushed down.The rep spring has none too little or too much tension. The problem lies with the drop screw adjustment. In order to adjust the drop to half the let off, I have to bring the drop screw up as high as I can get it which does'nt seem right. I feel that I may be overlooking something but I don't know what. The aftertouch seems just right. Any ideas will be deeply appreciated. Thank you for any advice, Jan Otto
