Pros & Cons

[Barbara Richmond]

Speaking of artist types, I replaced the punchings on a couple of big 
Steinways where the pianists' first "test" of a regultion is to play each 
note very softly to feel how even the touch is.  It's kind of unnerving 
because these guys can <really feel> it.   Pianists like this certainly keep 
me on my toes.  I haven't had any complaints about the change in landing 
(these are hard-core practicers), only compliments.

Dave,
Couldn't agree more about the positives affects of the Wurzen front 
punchings. Some call it a firm landing, I on the other hand, call it 
definite landing. Artist types are always in search a predictable and 
accurate landing. Remember, fine action regulation it's all about getting 
from point A to point B as evenly, cleanly, and as efficient as possible. 
The Wurzen front punching defines the landing point more accurately than 
anything I have ever tried.
