Hello,
I am working on a piano that I acquired a few months ago.  I have decided to
replace the hammers. They have already been filed and the blow distance
varies quite a bit from hammer to hammer, but is nearly 2" overall.
I am debating whether to order stock hammers or send samples and get a
custom made set.  Stock is cheaper, but I am concerned about matching the
angles in the bass and tenor sections.  Any advice?
thanks in advance
