Clarence,

 

While everything that everyone else has mentioned can possibly happen,
the most common cause in this model (and any model with coil springs) is
noise within the coil spring. The coils don't actually overlap but can
still cause noise. A strip of bushing cloth woven in and out of the
coils on one side of the spring takes care of the problem and makes you
the hero while making a permanent repair that others may have missed.
(Remember, this applies to Baldwins and others pianos with coil trap
springs.)

I received a call from a music store about a squeaking pedal on a new
Story & Clark Prelude 152 baby grand.  Two other tech's have looked at
it and have not been able to find the problem.  This piano is made in
China, it has the coil springs above the trap work against the piano.  I
will be going to look at this next week.  Anyone had any experience with
this problem on these pianos?  I am usually able to find these problems,
but any suggestions would be appreciated.
