  Ran into a really cute one... older Petrof 6 foot variant. I had a =
basic=20
  action cleanup, lub, and regulation in front of me. I'd gotten so far =
as=20
  to be back at the piano and started to do the rough in... and noticed=20
  real quickly in the middle area that there was this squishy feeling to =

  the bottom of the key stroke... sort of like what you get if the =
damper=20
  stop rail is adjusted just barely too low... but it wasnt. The other=20
  clue is that removing key front punchings really didnt seem to help, =

  give any increase in dip or aftertouch. I didnt find the problem until =
I=20
  noticed the keys wouldnt fall to the front felt punchings with the=20
  weight of the top action removed.

  gotten out of the factory in this condition. Amazing ! 50 Q&A points =
for=20
  the first to guess right :)

  Cheers
