Dear Bill: I'm betting you will find something like hardened glue on the hammer. That's what I found with a sound like you describe, and, strangly, a Yamaha grand. Years ago and do not remember the model, but before GH. I can't imagine your customer being interesred in having their piano rebuilt. I service one GH which is not all that bad, and the owner is happy. Good luck, Travis Gordy William J Schlipf wrote: > > Dear List: Am having difficulties with a new GH1B in the low tenor.
