Hi Roger, 

I enjoyed your class last week.  Phil Ford just delivered a=
 SD-10?  1981...it acually only says SD on the plate...he=
 installed Ronsen Wurzen hammers and the piano is very nice.  He=
 lacquered the top only.   I do have a slightly weak spot at the=
 top of the 1st treble section that I might lacquer...sort of a=
 continuance of his high treble lacquering.  All in all the piano=
 has plenty of everything, but I'm still getting to know.

Hi Jeff,
               Try the Ronsen, Werzen felt. It will be very=
 close.  They were a softer cold pressed hammer, usually juiced=
 in the top and bottom octave. Use 4:1 lacquer to lacquer=
 thinner.  Let harden for 2 or 3 days before further voicing for=
 best results.

Regards Roger

Nor do I.  I much prefer the tone of our 1982 SF to the tone of=
 the 1994's.  It's much easier to tune, but that may be in the=
 hammers.  I'd love to know what those earlier hammers were, so I=
 can replace the newer ones with something similar.  I can't=
 stand the sound these 1994 hammers produce.

Jeff
