[CAUT] Black on Black... (Jack alignment)

[Jim Busby]

Hi Jeannie,

 

But I really, really can't see it! The ophthalmologist says it's only
going to get worse... (I don't think I'll "get used to it".) Good light
helps with normal parts, but the black jacks blend in with any shadows
so I feel totally blind.

 

At least it's good to know I'm not crazy as well as blind.

 

Regards,

Jim Busby

No, you're not the only one, Jim.  I asked Don about that in Kansas City
and he said I'd just get used to it after a while.  Perhaps if I did ask
many Kawai actions and factory workers or prepped all the pianos in a
dealership (Ha!) I'd eventually get used to it, but most of us aren't in
those situations.

List, Don...

 

Help! Do any of you have a trick for seeing the new Kawai parts, namely
for doing the jack to knuckle alignment? I truly can't see the black
parts/plane of the jack. (My eyes are bad, but this is way worse for me)
I've got some good lights and such, but it's still difficult. I've been
tempted to paint white-out on the backs of the jacks... Love the parts,
but these old eyes don't get it done anymore.

 

Any tricks out there? Am I the only one experiencing this?

 

Thanks,

Jim Busby BYU
