Thanks,

In case it didn't come through from my attempt-to-be-humorous response to Nick's post in your defense, I too apologize for overstepping.

Thank you for the lecture! Your Young Chang example is specific. Once again, I am only asking a generalized question. I do apologize for violating the forum “give and get proposition”. I appreciate your response. James Williams.

Hi James,

The brand may be irrelevant to the particular question you posed to the list, as you stated, but I have to chime in in support of Marcel's question.  This forum is a give and get proposition.  You've been given good, prompt responses to your question about tuning pin torque, and those who have (hopefully) been of assistance to you want to learn something specific from what you are going through.  It's not like you would be betraying the confidence of the manufacturer, if that is what's holding you back from stating whose pianos you are struggling with.  In today's era of (mostly) mass-produced pianos, you can rest assured that you are not the only one having this problem.  It  would just be more useful--and show you to be a full-fledged participant in the valuable exchange that takes place on this list--for the rest of us to know whose pianos we are talking about.  Could you imagine all of the discussion taking place about, say, Young Chang's expanding action bracket problem withOUT knowing the manufacturer and vintage of the pianos under discussion?  Wouldn't that be of rather limited usefulness to all of the other list subscribers, to say the least?

The brand is irrelevant to the question. The question is a general question about pin torque, not specific to one particular  brand. Thanks for your inquiry. James.

James, why do you avoid answering the question that have been asked at least 3 times: What is the piano brand?


Is there a reason?
