---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Thanks Alan. Good idea! A new key would be great unless they've changed anything. This piano is probably about 5 years old give or take a couple years. I thought Baldwin might not be servicing any warranty claims on pianos made pre-Gibson ownership since Gibson bought only their "assets" and not their liabilities.

It was during the ownership transition to Gibson, so I don't know how things would go now, but I got a new key from Baldwin with very little hassle (just a few emails)--they didn't even charge me for it. Since this is still a piano in production, I think I'd at least try.

It can't be leveled with the others or squared. The front of the key is twisted compared to the back. When you set it on a flat surface you can really see the twist - the front left corner of the key is up in the air about 1/8". I know sometimes you can force a wedge into a kerf cut into a key that is bent or warped, but it doesn't seem like that would work on this twisted key. I would appreciate your suggestions.
