I can say I’ve had good results with new S&S action frames here at the university. No touchweight problems with all new S&S parts on the new frame as well.

First action replacement job...notice this morning that there are splits in all action rails. Not split throughout all sections of each rail, but in each rail. Don't recall seeing any before today. So maybe it happened whilst removing old parts last Friday. Good to know now rather than later, I suppose. I guess I sure know how to pick 'em. Sigh.... :) So, I can get a new frame from Steinway for about half the cost of getting the old one repaired. What are the pros and cons of each?
