Greetings all,
I am taking some suggestions here on a new hammer job. The piano is a
Baldwin M.
This is a fairly small grand, and the hammers on there are somewhat
lighter than the Renner Blues I have usually used. The Renner Lites are
available in the right weight and lengths, but this customer is interested in
a mellow piano sound, so I am looking for something that has a little less
compression in it.
I have, for some reason, worked on extremely few Baldwins in my career,
and rehammered only one, years ago, when the hammer choices were more
limited. What is the hammer recomendation from those "Baldwin Experienced"?
Is it the Abel? Factory replacements? Ronson, etc? Somebody get me up to
speed on what is working best for these pianos today!
Thanks and regards,
Ed Foote
