CF carbon fiber lever

[Leslie Bartlett]

We have a local who spent years finding the perfect hammer, and tips, and
came up with the Jahn with a specially made 2.5 degree head.........  I
caught him one day at the Steinway store where he works, and asked if he had
finally settled on "perfection".......  he wanted to know what I used, and
rather shame-faced, I showed him my home-built ones with my 15 degree
heads.........  His response, "These are really nice."

I finally gave up my 43 year old tuning hammer and have been using a Jahn
top of the line tuning lever for about a year and a half now. It wasn't
because I'm frugal, It's just that I never thought about changing it. The
stiffness compared to my old hammer made it so much easier to feel and set
the pin.  Now I reading all this talk about  the Fujan and Faulk and how
much stiffer they are. Are they $200 to $300 better? and if so, which one is
better? It was a big change from my old hammer. Would it be that much of a
change again with these?
