Avery, I don't want to get into the same pickle that I think Steinway has put itself in, which is "one size fits all", so I want to emphasize that we try different configurations on each action. However, the combination I mentioned would be the first I would try on teflon actions. It depends mostly upon the key ratio, and the size of hammer one wants to use. Some of the D's will even tolerate original dimension shanks, if the hammers aren't too heavy. That shank [Renner modified] also works pretty well if you for whatever reason absolutely can't replace Teflon repetitions. Bob
