Hi Dave, Thank you . that would be so helpful because one never knows when I'll run itno this. Both cord loop replacements would be great, adn even the cord loop for the bechstein tyep wippen woudl be good. Although I was able to do this one on a Bechstein grand back in Cecember. I hope it turned out correct. Having the pictures in color woud be helpful. I'm curious as to why it is incorrect to simply replace the flange if it save time and headaches. Visually speaking I think it would be less complicated to replace the entire flange. Thanks again.

For replacing a damper spring, instead of showing the proper method of removing the old flange cord and spring, and fitting with new cord, he has a photo of a new damper spring with its tail curled round, and secured by, the damper flange screw. An odd omission, really. (Unless this was changed in later editions, anyone??) Wouldnt it be nice if all the photos in Reblitz were in colour, like the wonderful colour photos everyone submits here? It would make the book prohibitively costly, I guess, in view of its limited market. If it would help, Marshall, I could try taking a series of photos of the flange cord replacement process? (You're talking about damper flange cord, not hammer flange loop cord, yes?). Best wishes, David Boyce. Hi everyone, Does Reblits cover this repair? I think getting up close to see a good picture might help me. It's funny. For being a sight impaired guy, I'm very visual.
