Ron, I encountered this problem with a disklavier and an extremely picky customer with an acoustically HARD room. After working through the swapping of plungers, etc, I called Yamaha service and they sent me a bag of slightly oversized plungers. Solved the clicking problem immediately. Of course a couple then were sticky and needed a slight sanding. :) This might be the answer if all else fails. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron Nossaman" <RNossaman@cox.net> To: "Pianotech" <pianotech@ptg.org> Sent: Friday, June 20, 2003 1:59 AM Subject: Re: puzzler - not > > > Remove the plunger.
