[CAUT] Key frame placement

[David Ilvedson]

I would think the first thing to check is how your wippens align under the hammer/shanks & flanges in relation to the strings, i.e. are the shanks going off at an angle to align with strings and thus the wippens not parallel under the knuckle..   I'd be more interested in changing the bass cleat/felt relative to that before concerning myself with how the key ends align with the underlevers...imho    

To be clear (possibly)....for instance, if moving the entire keyframe towards the bass allowed you to re-align the hammers and get a better centering of the wippens under the knuckle...
