Tp the list.
There is no doubt that 90% of pianos have butt plates, but all the books =
such as Reblitz, the Guild's PACE series, the Guild reprints of =
articles, etc, say nothing about problems with utt plates.=20
Manufacturing action parts from unseasoned wood causes a bad problem. =
When the wood dries completely the hammer wobbles from side to side =
because the groove in the butt is greater than the diameter of the =
center pin.
The first thing that you try is replacing the center pin ! Sometimes you =
use size 25 or size 26 center pins and the problem is still there. Other =
times you see that the bushing cloth is all right and you ask, "Why ream =
or burnish the bushing cloth if it is very good and the center pin is =
the right size?
This is the question =3D=3D> WHAT IS A BETTER THING TO DO AND HOW TO DO =
IT?
Thanks=20
