Greetings, Tone, and its perception by the pianist is so subjective that I think the simplest approach is to ask him to take you to a piano that sounds exactly like what he wants out of his. If he can't do that, then you know he is looking for something that doesn't exist. If he can, then you will have a far better idea of not only what you might do with the present hammers, but maybe what kind of hammer you should replace them with. Sometimes work is just to expensive for me to afford to do...
