Thunk

[Kallie Swanepoel]

Hi Ed
 
Shift the action further in if possible, for the hammers is striking the
capo bridge rather than the strings.

I have a client with a Baldwin L, built in 1978.  The piano has nice
tone and he likes it except that the tone attack is unusually wooden.
As the hammer strikes the string it has a very prominent "Thunk."
Played softly the effect is unheard, but any moderate to heavy strike
has this unpleasant start to the tone.  In the top half octave say G#7
on up, there is virtually no pitch, just this whack of a noise.  I have
tried to voice it out with no success.  Any suggestions???
