(speaking of Renners): > These are quality hammers but the ones I've seen in recent years always >needed voicing especially in the money notes(5 and 6 octaves) Absolutely they do need voicing, Dale----but what's negative about that? I find, after maintaining dozens of pianos in performing/recording/heavy usage situations that we put Renner hammers on, that once you get 'em right, they stay right, and are very responsive to just a few needle stitches. I love their sustain and evenness. Great hammers. AND, we've put on several sets that have been rock-esque and a big pain in the ass to keep sounding "good." And made Rick Baldassin aware of it, thank you very much. Best.........David Andersen
