Just so things are clear, I am asking about the height of backchecking, > not backcheck height. ;) Kinda interconected tho, wouldnt you say ? Consistant backchecking depends on consistant backcheck height, amoung many other things. I like to set the actual check height at the piano... sliding the action in and out as I go to make sure all is well. If you start of with checks at a good angle and reasonbly close to where they will end up, all at the same height, and the action well regulated, things go pretty quickly by using your fingers to push (bend) the backchecks forward or back as need be.
