Hello List, I want to begin by saying Thank You. Thank you for all of the advice and comments posted. I received a call today while I was in the shop and low and behold, the lady with the piano in question was calling. Her piano was making a funny noise again. I asked her if it was making the noise at the present time and if she said it was, I was ready to go. I told her not to touch a thing. Don't even breathe until I get there. I arrived within about a half an hour. Approached the piano asked her to sit at the piano and play the offending notes. Wow! what an obnoxious noise I thought. Definitely a buzz. I kneeled in front of the piano and began playing the offending notes while listening. Coming from the bass end. Put my hand up to the bottom panel and it stopped. My heart jumped. I checked it again and again. Turns out that the spring for the board was installed in the wrong position and was allowing a little bit of play (actually a lot) I ended up moving the spring 3/8" to take up the slack. No more Buzz. She felt as relieved as I did. She told me she was afraid to call me because she was beginning to wonder if it was all in her head. I told her that the thought had crossed my mind and many techs on the list. Another happy tech and customer. Thanks again for all you've done. Mike Masters Masters Piano Service Lakewood, OH
