Dave said: "For some reason I see that more often in Baldwin pianos than any other, they don't seem to like the Louisiana heat and humidity. I really like the Ronsens, you can always add a little lacquer under the strike point if the top needs perking up." Dave, et al, You need to be more specific when discussing Ronsen Hammers and what you need to do to them!(Or any other brand, for that matter.<G>) At last count, Ronsen offers 4 different types of felt! Then, to add to the mix, you can ask Ray to press them in specific ways. So, there are many different choices when using Ronsen Hammers! It's one of several reasons I've been using them since the 70's!!!<G> I'm one satisfied customer and a big fan of Ronsens. Of course, if your favorite hammer is another company and they work for you,....great. It's what you want in tone and what you get used to. "adding lacquer" is not good advice imo.
