>> Hi...I'm trying to find out how to remove the cheek blocks (for action
>> removal) on a 1986 Story & Clark baby grand ser.# 901037. There are no
>> screws underneath and nothing under the rubber button on the cheek block.
>> Also, there are no screws under the key slip. Maybe I need new glasses.
>> Thanks for any help offered.
