Old piano new action

There is not a problem with the piano at all.   No cracks in the sound board 
and such.   What puzzles me is that they replaced the entire action with a 
new accelerated style key frame.   I will have to look at the damper stack 
when I take it back.

It did bring back memories of Fred Drash I'm sure I spelled it wrong, and 
how he used me as a ginny pig at conventions.   He would say, now if a blind 
guy can do it, any of you must be able to.   It makes me chuckle when I 
think of how they touted those bushings by saying, you just push it half way 
out and ream one side then you can push it back in.   It's just easier to 
remove the pin and do both sides at the same time.
