A piano teacher bought a used Yamaha G3 which had a nice touch before the rebuilder installed new hammers. Now the touchweight is 65 grams and she and her students are complaining about the heavy touch. I had a set of used Yamaha C3 hammers in my shop and substituted a couple of those hammers for the heavy ones and the touchweight dropped to 53 grams. What is the most expeditious way to remove some of the weight from the hammers? I don't like the idea of using a sandpaper paddle to take that much weight off; too labor intensive and with today's modern tools there must be an easier way. How would the list members handle this?
