What causes a hammer to double-strike on an upright? When I play the key, it feels like there is an extra force at the beginning of the keystroke. When the keystroke is at the halfway point, the hammer has already hit the string and started to come back. When I have finished my keystroke, the hammer has returned and hit the string once more. I have tried re-pinning the hammer flange and doing a finer regulation. The only thing that seems to help-- but not actually solving the problem, and creating other problems-- is setting let-off extremely far from the string. Any ideas? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://ptg.org/pipermail/pianotech.php/attachments/20090818/149d564d/attachment.htm>
