[pianotech] Weickert Felt by ROnsen

[Israel Stein]

Dale,

I recently hung a set of Weickert Ronsens on an 85-note Steinway A, for 
a client who was unhappy with the tone on her piano. It appears that she 
had a set of overjuiced ca. 1985 Steinway hammers on there. The Wickerts 
took a light juicing with 1:4  lacquer throughout the scale, and the 
tone fell right into place with relatively little needling. The client 
is ecstatic about  the tone - it is on the bright side, has a good 
dynamic range and maintains its quality at low dynamic levels, right 
through ppp - which was her main concern.
