This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Dave, I've had this feeling on a few pianos only to find out that my temperament strip was getting old and there were tiny little pieces of felts that were touching the middle strings when I was tuning the temperament. Could this be the case? Marcel Carey, RPT Sherbrooke, QC -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org]On Behalf Of Piannaman@aol.com List, I'm scratching my head at this one. I tuned a BB today that is around 3 years out of the factory. As I tuned the temperament, I found that the middle string on several notes from middle C down towards the tenor have virtually no sustain. I thought it was damper "drag"(for lack of a better term). Pulled the dampers out of the way, no change. Second thought was over-needled hammers. I plucked the strings. The sound still died after a couple of seconds. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
