Upright loss of repetition

[piannaman at aol.com]

 Hi William,

I've found friction in the centers on some of these models.? It doesn't make sense that it would appear suddenly, though.? Good luck, and keep us posted.? 

The model isn't important, but knowing the era of construction could prove useful.

You might attract Don Mannino if you put "Kawai upright loss of repetition" in the subject line....:-)

Hi Dave,


?


Nope, we got it before.? I'll 
really scrutinize the lost motion when I return.? Also, (I'm a little 
embarrassed to say) I don't know the model.? It is a 1972 console, so I'd 
assume ABS to some degree, though I'd have to look again to confirm.? These 
details just don't stay in my head.? As I recall, the model # was not 
obvious and I didn't look extra hard to find it.? Didn't really seem 
relevant enough to me to start looking all over for a designation that wouldn't 
really give me any useful information (other than filling every one on the list 
in as to what exact beastie we are dealing with).??

John, William, all,

I sent this 
  before, but I think it got lost somewhere along the way...

  

Don Mannino once posted 
  somewhere (Piano World maybe?) that Kawai uprights operate better with no or 
  slightly negative lost motion.

I've found Kawai upright actions to work 
  quite well.? What model is it?? Wood or ABS parts?? 
  

Good Luck,

Dave Stahl
