Thanks for all the replies... some good thoughts all around. I was wondering if anyone had played with hammer mass... ala adding lead to the moulding as Stanwood buffs do. The thing is the hammers cant really get much brighter then they are. If I brighten up more then now it will just get pingy sounding. I thought perhaps a bit more mass in the hammers might bring up the power a bit. Jim mentioned something I liked.... lower volume is good for practice rooms. I suppose that goes for the home as well. Think of all those greatfull parents !! :) Actually... the instrument has a pleasant enough voice. Its just there is no real power or projection. I'd like to get a bit more anyways. Cheers RicB
