Hi-

I got time today to share a problem that I don't remember encountering 
before, and it had me scratching my head for a bit to figure out.  Last 
Friday I was doing final regulation pass on a S&S B action job with new 
shanks and hammers, backcheck leather, key bushing, and key frame felt.  
Centers were all repinned as necessary also. While going last time through 
let off I noticed one note in the middle was inconsistent. Press the key 
slowly once and let off was just right.  Press a second time and let off 
was way off.  Play the note, check again, and let off is good.  Check 
slowly now and it's way off.  Immediately I looked at the let off button 
felt, which seemed slightly loose so I reglued it securely and tried 
again.  No change.  By quick visual inspection everything looked fine with 
the parts.  Know what it was?


Dennis.
