(Unshifted..) I'm deep into getting our concert grand worthy- and want to get the best placement before I go and move wippens and hammers and bass cleat felt which are questionable and do a complete regulation.. For example- should the underlevers be to the right-ish of the key ends so that when it shifts it's centered? OR should the underlevers be CENTERED on the key ends so that when it shifts they'll be on the left-ish.. (Not leftist!!) :) Stranges in the niiiighhhhtttt Michelle (That's a neat name too, same as my niece) Horace has given some very insightful advice, which I am sure will help a lot. But I think you should consider what David I. said. The alignment of the action needs to be so that the shanks travel straight up and down, with the hammer centering just to the left of center. Once that has been establish, the align the wippens under the knuckles. Then align the damper levers over the keys. The exact position is not critical, but they should not, of course, hit the neighbor on the shift. But even that can be corrected by shaving off a millimeter or two off the key and felt, as needed.
