Hi William Are you lifting the damper levers out of that equation before using your touch weight set. If not you are getting false information because the damper lever resistance is being factored in accidentally. Does that help Now can anyone give me a strait forward answer? What is the touch weight that I should be looking for in medium to high quality grand pianos today. I have heard people brag about 52 grams and such, but I just don't see it. I have run a gram weight scale on every key from 1 to 88 on a lot of pianos and on my new pianos I have brought the weight from 68 to 70 down to 62 and 60 on a lot of keys. After that I have lubed, repinned and removed mass from the hammer heals, but, you guessed it, it never gets much below 60. Any one want to give me some guidance?
