When we install players in uprights we reinforce the keybed with square =
aluminum tubing using carrage bolts throught the key bed. It draws level =
when you tighten the bolts.

  Subject: keybed not level


  List,
  The problem:
  Customer said his keys didn't feel like his teacher's piano. Turned =
out that the key dip was about a fat 3/16" for most of the middle of the =
piano. This is one of those pianos: A "Grand"  console. It appears that =
the keybed has sagged. Can any of you suggest an in home repair for the =
situation? I know, most of you will say this is a POS or something like =
that, but it's the only piano the poor child will have for a few years =
at this point. I suppose I could just shim up the balance rail, but the =
original problem will still be there. Any suggestions?
