While giving many of the keys firm blows while tuning I noticed a reverberation in the keys (maybe 25%-50% of them - some more than others) - a bobbling-like feel at the end of the keystroke. You would not feel anything abnormal on a light to medium blow. But on a hard blow it felt like something was dancing on the back end of the key at the end of the key stroke. > > It took me a little while to figure it out.
