In a message dated 98-05-16 00:12:15 EDT, you write: << I have done an entire treble section with buckskin on an upright piano. Supertone(d) the buckskins, then filed, fitted, & voiced to blend with the rest of the piano. Turned out just great. That's one customer that won't have any reason to buy new hammers. >> If you have to do a whole section, why not replace the hammers? How much time does it take to buckskin one hammer? How much time does it take to hang one hammer? 4 or 5 hammers maybe, to save the customer money, and hopefully a full set later. Dave Peake, RPT P.S. BTW, AOL did an upgrade and I could not download my email for a few days and now have to play catch up. Time for a change.
