Probably the sostenuto blade catching the damper tab. Take a screwdriver and give a little push at the damper top flange. This will move the tab slightly away from the sost blade. David Ilvedson, RPT Pacifica, California Original message From: "Marc Lanthier" To: pianotech at ptg.org Received: 5/16/2006 1:18:28 PM Subject: Sticking Damper in Young Chang GS-150 Hi, The damper in the G5 region of a Young Chang model GS-150 small grand piano gets stuck open if you hit the key pretty hard (it must be pushed back down by hand). A medium hit on the key seems to jam the hammer for 1 second but it returns to the down position. Even if I hit the key lightly I observed some binging of the damper before it returned to the down position. What could be the problem, does the action have to be taken out of the piano for repair?
