Hi Todd, As a matter of interest, had the pinblock, become unattached? That is the only time a plate broke on me. If a piano is down in pitch a lot, I always check for a seperated pinblock, before the pitch raise. I have saved myself a few times, by securing the pinblock, with bolts, through to the back.
