Greetings List(s),

Someone is paying me handsomely to realize  their own tuning system for 
a couple of performances this weekend.   As a safety precaution, he 
would like to have the notes that he doesn't  actually play (all of the 
Cs and Ebs, in this case) disabled.  The  best idea I have come up with 
so far is to add another front rail cloth  punching on top of the one 
that is already there for these keys, so the  keys will barely depress.

Is there a better/easier  way?

Thanks,

Alan Eder



There's a difference between having the notes not play, and keys not going  
down. If he doesn't want to have the keys go down, then adding front rail  
punchings would be the best way to go. But if he doesn't want the notes to play,  
but still have the key go down, then remove the hammer, shank and flange and  
add jiffy weights to the back of the keys.
