This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Steinway M at a church. All I had to go by was a description written: = rattle, squeak and hum. Not knowing exactly where to start, I sat down and began to play and = immediatley heard a rattle when I played G#3 moderately. I checked the = soundboard quickly for anything but no luck. So, I crawled under the = piano to take a look. Everything looked ok, but just for fun, I = tightened a screw on the lone accessable soundboard button. I crawled = back out, and not expecting any difference, played the note again. The = buzz was still there, and had spread to several surrounding notes. = Crawled back under and tightened again. The buzz was still there but = closer to orginal sound. With a piece of thin steel, I checked under = the plate for anything on the soundboard. I checked the ribs but = couldn't find any indication that one was loose; but for the heck of it, = I placed a wedge between a post and rib, and the rattle is gone. Well, I'm sure this isn't the right way to leave it, so I'm open to = suggestions. Thanks a lot, y'all Gary McCormick ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
