[CAUT] Interesting

[Paul T Williams]

Mick and all.

I asked Mick about heavy DW on a '79 Steinway B.  I just replaced all 
hammers and shanks with S&S parts that weighed out the same as the old 
ones...just a little heavier since the old ones had been filed a few 
times. (I call this Ham-shanks when making notes)

Before DW was over 60g in the bass, and high 50's in the treble.  Lots of 
lead in the keys. Ugh! (thinking about moving the capstans)

Just for fun, before I left for a couple hours, I McLubed the wippen 
action centers.  When I came back, the samples I juiced did indeed come 
down about 10g!!  I'm sure it's just a short term fix, but wondered if 
yall have tried this?
