Take out the whip and wiggle the post. If it's unglued, you'll feel it right away. =20 Marcel Carey -----Message d'origine----- De : pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org] De la part de Dave McKibben Envoy=E9 : 29 janvier 2006 15:28 =C0 : Pianotech Objet : action clicking sound I need some wisdom: =20 I am working on a Schafer & Sons G-3 Grand piano that has two keys that have a 'clicking' sound. The clicking sound is not there when you play pp but is there with mf and up. =20 What I did so far: Took the whippens out and visually inspected. Did not see anything obvious and no missing felts. Regulate the action on those keys ( which were way off prior to inspection ). The jack is a little off to one side of the repetition lever window, but not more than many other keys that dont have a click. Lifted the damper up and held it while I played the key..... it still clicks =20 One comment: The click sounds like a wooden click ( I'm not saying it is, just sounds like it ), but if I deaden the tricord strings with my finger, the loud click does not sound. The hammers do sound a little hard and make a good ' thud ' when they hit the deadened strings. =20 Does anyone have any ideas on what could be making the click, and what I could look for ??? Many thanks to you all in advance. I really appreciate the opportunity to ask these type questions and get feedback from those with far more experience than myself. =20 Dave McKibben =20 =20 DavesPianotuning@earthlink.net http://www.home.earthlink.net/~davespianotuning/ 858-776-2516 =20 ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
