Blocking hammers

Call Young Chang about the growing action brackets.  They are very
familiar with the problem.  Don Mannino has not been at YC for
several years (he's at Kawai) but they all know the problem and are
very helpful.  Model & Serial number will tell them which brackets to
send.

Hazen, 
    You overlooked the growing action brackets. You should still have
time to call Don Mannino with the serial number and he will send out
new action brackets which you will then install and bill Young Chang
America for your labor to do so. A common problem but if you've never
seen it before it's a bit of a head scratcher. Have fun!!!

Hi list, 
I went to a Youg Chang today,about 10 years old,for a tuning.I tuned
it once about 3 or 4 years ago.I got there and every hammer was
blocking,I'm not talking about buzzing,but major blocking.I did'nt
have enough time to get into it as I had an appointment conflict.So
I'm going back tomorrow to fix this ,pitch raise ,clean,and
tune.(it's a grand with a piano-disc system).I checked to see if any
rails were loose,or might have shifted,is there anything I should
look for,maybe with the player system?I changed letoff on a few
notes,and it quit blocking,but I sure had to twist them a mile,it has
the dowel type.It also has excessive keydip.I guess I should go
through one note and completely regulate,I am just checking to see if
 there's something obvious,maybe I've overlooked. 
Thanks in advance, 
Hazen Bannister
