I am considering hiring Newton Hunt to service my Mason & Hamlin Model A.The piano is 67 years old and has the original action. I want him to make the piano the best it can be and improve its durability.  He proposes to do the following:

New Hammers and shanks $ 800 Abel hammers and shanks
New wippens (optional) $1000
Key bushings $ 300 Quietness and straight movement
New felts under the keys $ 200 Cushioning and quietness
Regulation $ 750
Balance weighing $ 250 Evening touch weight
New damper felts (optional) $ 200 Quiet operation

Newton is a RPT in NJ. Can anybody comment on his workmanship?

Thanks,
Leslie Klein
