    Tommy,   I've heard and felt a tiny squeaking on a =
knuckle..........before I put teflon on it, but never after that. I've =
never heard of teflon causing squeaks on anything. Maybe you're thinking =
of the Steinway teflon bushings. And I thought the major complaint on =
those were "clicks". Micro-fine teflon is the greatest thing since =
sliced bread when it comes to knuckles, IMHO. There's still plenty of =
friction in the rest of the action so that the pianist will always have =
plenty of control.=20

    Just my two penny's worth.=20

  Gentlemen:
       I'm sure I am wrong about this BUT I thought teflon was causing =

  "squeeking" problems on newer pianos. (knuckles on hammer shanks)  If =
so why=20
