soundboard causing buzz, more...

[Bec and John]

Hi Tom,

Thanks for motivating me :) I'm just concerned, my biggest fear perhaps 
regarding my piano is that the soundboard would need repair, so perhaps 
I'm being a bit worrisome.

I'll try removing the lid again tomorrow and see if the sound is gone 
or if today was just a fluke, and if it is gone, I'll concentrate on 
the lid.

Thanks!
