This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment A new subject I need some advise on, please!=20 Tuned a nine foot Estonia today, it had some noticeable buzzing going = on. I won't pose this as a puzzler as I need some advice on the subject = asap. The cause of the buzzing was broken soundboard buttons. They were = made of some kind of nylon or plastic and all of them had broken in half = thru the screw hole. I took quite a handful of debris from all the = locations and tossed it. Now there are screws standing proud of the = board by a good half-inch.=20 The question: Should I order some buttons and replace, or remove all the = screws as a cosmetic solution. I can detect no change in the tonal = quality of the instrument at this point and I don't have any way to tell = if the bridge/board is compromised in any way. The instrument is about = twelve years old and has had hammers shaped and a fine regulation done = of recent times. Except for a poor feel in the action, which would = benefit mightily with a Stanwood application and a lightening of the = hammers, I don't find the piano in too bad of shape. Yes, the buzzing is = gone. And, yes the Estonia is going to be replace with a Steinway soon. Suggestions please?=20 Joseph Alkana RPT ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
