"If you are sure" is something I can't be sure of yet in this new endeavor. Other than the slow return of the hammers, everything is functioning normally. The notes still play, they're just losing energy because they can't get back to the rest rail. Are there any other causes I should look for before I try soaking? Thanks very much!

Let dry overnight - do not blow dry with heat. 90% of the time this will free up all the action centers. Lots about this in the archives.
