Rebuilt Action Touch is too light

[RicB]

Hi Brett

Basically... if you dont know the answer to this question already, then 
perhaps you would to best to hire in a tech that knows how to do this 
kind of thing.  That said, reading a bit of Stanwood touchweight 
methodology is the way to go IMB.

Touchweight problems on rebuilt actions is probably one of the most 
common things I run into.  Even today way too many.. if not most techs 
don't seem to understand that when you change action parts... especially 
hammers... this necessitates a new  weigh-off of the action... let alone 
knowing the basics of how to even do this.

You definitely  don't want to start shooting in the dark here... or you 
will end up in all kinds of interesting waters with your teachers.

    Aloha , My local Piano teacher has another C-7 this one is older about
    1967 that I replaced all the whippen assembly's(from Yamaha) , installed
    new key bushings, and new hammers prehung by Renner . She likes the
    action fast & light . One of the other teachers that works there
    hates it
    , and says a few of her students have a hard time playing it . What
    could
    I do to change the touch .

    Thanks , Brett
