letoff, blocking hammers on an everett upright, ca 1974

[daniel carlton]

hi all

i'm working on this everett, you see, and i've filed the hammers maybe 1mm
or so, and adjusted letoff, but the hammers now have a "blocking" feeling
(blocking against the string if you know what i mean). i used the 1/8th
1/16th inch magnetic strips from Schaff or Pianotek as a good place to start
for letoff and tried to graduate it from 1/8-1/16.

i'm wondering if i've set letoff too close. it's on a teacher's piano, so
i'm thinking kids who play lightly might notice it more, too.

help?
