I agree with you though, lead in the keys alone isn't going to do= much for tone. Terry Farrell Thomas, I guess I'm a little confused but why would anyone even want= that?

Lots of key lead= weighting, all back towards the center pin. Since the keys don't have center pins, are you saying toward the= front or towards the capstan? And why would a heavier playing action= "help" the piano tone? There are other ways to help the piano tone without doing= something that "might" injure" the person having to play on it. Like I said, I= guess I'm confused. Just curious.

Sounds like a "series of unfortunate events"---misinformation, misunderstandings, perhaps someone not knowing how to diagnose or voice, confused expectations, or......something.............
