? Tuning difficulties were a topic of discussion when I was at the factory a year ago.? ? I heard a while back that this has been fixed on new pianos. I think they re-designed the pressure bar. ? Bob.?

Yup,

At a recent guild meeting
with a Steinway rep. The question was asked, "why is it so hard to
tune the upper treble on a Steinway?" His answer was to use Protex
Prolube on the felt that is just above the "V" bar. He didn't
know why it worked but it did. So the next time I tuned a Steinway
upright I used the Prolube and by God! It workes!! Don't ask me to give
an explanation as to why it works but it does. Has anybody else tried
this?
