This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Is a Schafer & Son made by Samick? I've had a couple Samicks that had = the wooden center rail pin hole insert on the bottom of the key come = unglued. Clicked pretty good. 'Twas a toughie to nail down. Finally = tried glue! ;-) Terry Farrell -----Original Message----- 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. 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 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. 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.
