David: I notice that the action is laid down on its front in order for you to access the hammers for shaping, I presume. Do you support the action in any other way as you do this this way?

As you can see, the hammers were WORN! I refaced them and ironed them, quantum leap in tone quality and evenness for minimal time input. Really, they were a bit too worn to reface and new hammers would be much better. But the owner is in his eighties and I don't think he would have spent the money. The piano struck me as being very like Bechsteins of the same size and age, tonally. David. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
