Tuned a 1969 Kohler & Campber (Samick) studio today. Hammers going = all over the place, left and right. Tried to adjust one, and discovered = each section is pinned with one giant flange pin.

The butt plates have been allowed to get = loose and the centerpins migrate until--Voila---They are all connected! With the action on the bench, remove the whole mess ,separate = the butts, push the pins back in place and tighten the plates=20 -Ream and repin as necessary--and it will be necessary on many.
