The instrument I mentioned was a low life 'older Yamaha' G3. The AA Wurzen hammers (made by Renner) gave it a completely new dimension. I had exactly the very same experience with a younger C3 about 10 years old. Not a very bad one, not a very good one. I installed our AA Wurzen covered hammers and they altered the instrument. It almost sounded German. hah! André Oorebeek
