Richard, It has to be fixed. Repinning everything is the only way to go. Are the pins coated or partially coated with black gunk (I assume that it's graphite)? Who pays for it is the question. Who makes the Wurly? Shouldn't the manufacturer be responsible? I have a client with an SG 150 that has similar problems. I haven't repinned everything, but most of the hammer, jack, and whip flanges. This piano was my training ground for repinning.

The piano in question is a 4'11" grand circa 2000. It has a climate control system installed by myself about 18mos. ago, and also a moisture king under key dh strip placed under the back action. I've repinned several damper flanges(totaly seized-no swinging at all) lubed etc. What would you suggest as a course of action to solve this situation.Is this a warranty issue? Gibson did not take over warranties when they bought the company, I am told. Thanks, Rick Ucci/Ucci Piano ________________________________________________________________________ Check out the new AOL.
