Well received.

 

Taking the Lyre off, I will see what’s wrong.

Right.  Good Point, David.  If you put the lyre on, seat it fully and lock
it in with the button, it should not be loose or wobbly with or without lyre
sticks.  If it is, as David wrote, inspect the mounting plates.  If it's a
nice tight fit and the lyre sticks are just fiddling around back there, well
then, go back to the beginning.  After all, this is where I am.  And this is
where I will stay..........

Just for clarification:   the lyre itself is not wobbling?   Making you
think the lyre braces (stickes) are at fault...when you pull the lyre, make
sure the female plate in the keybed is not cracked.   You will have to
replace the two parts to repair that problem...

I’ll go for the leather disks on the Steinway, and I’ll check that the Lyre
is properly seated first. 

 

Thank you.
