Hire a registered technician to evaluate your piano. This would be the =
best way to learn about any problems it may have as well as possible =
solutions.=20
I have never had a client request that their piano be modified to feel =
like an electronic keyboard - not yet anyway.
I have however witnesed the joy that a pianist feels when the geometry =
and other problems with their piano are solved and they have a =
functioning musical insturment.

Subject: Steinway heavy touch



I know that Steinway pianos, both the verticals, and grands have for =
years been noted for their heavy touches. I have a beautiful 1886 =
vertical, completely restored that plays and sounds great, but every =
prospective customer complains about the heavy touch. Does anyone know =
of a way to make the touch lighter. I have played the piano for over 60 =
years, and I myself like the touch of a Steinway. But, I guess in this =
era, everyone wants the soft touch of an electronic keyboard.
