Chinese Steck grand. G4 will not let off, period. Checked and adjusted drop, letoff, blow, etc., etc. Increased drop, decreased letoff, whatever. It just would not cycle through and let off. Removed front punching to make sure aftertouch was more than enough: no help, hammer lifts into strings and it would go higher still. No foreign objects, excessive wear, or anything of that sort.

There was the tiniest (and I mean tiniest) teeny, itty-bitty, puny, little thing that made all the difference in the world--more than you'd ever guess possible unless you've seen the effect. 

This ought to be a good and instructive puzzler, especially for people who are just learning grand regulation or preparing for the technical exam.

What was it?

A one legged politician came through town this morning. He was stumping for votes.
