Three year old Baldwin Hamilton. Customer complained of "noisy keys". Traced the noise (woody sound when the key returns to rest position) to balance rail. I haven't yet removed the keys and checked the adjustment and hold down screws, but just feeling the balance rail, it seemed to be seated firmly. As a test, I placed a cardboard front rail punching (it was the only thing I had with me at the time) between one of the keys and and the balance rail - it stopped the noise (for that key). I appreciate any tips for things to look for. -- Jerry Hunt Dallas, TX USA
