Spinet Evaluation

[Joe And Penny Goss]

Hi You should raise the hammer rest rail with and without the dampers engaged,
Watch to see if all hammers return quickly.If they or some do not treat a few with GJ
without removing action. If that solves the few, remove action and treat all.
If they remain the same ( slow ) remove and treat with achohol.
Too late to spell <g>

  I returned from the spinet evaluation. The elbows will need to be replaced.  And with the keys that do work, when you release your finger from the key, the hammer only goes about half way back and you have to move it with your hand to return it.  I am suspecting the hammer return springs need replacing.  It didn't "feel" like tight flanges, and the hammer springs are where they're suppose to be, but I guess they just are wore out.


  Thoughts?
