This is a 1970 vintage piano that has some level of action rebuild done in 1993 (before my time). Some of this work wasn=B9t done particularly well, so over semester break I put new Renner shanks & flanges and Ronsen hammers on it. It turne= d out very nice, but there are five notes in the low treble that click when played. It initially sounded like the click happens at hammer impact, but = I think it might be triggered by the end of keystroke. The click seems to be in the wippen, since when I pull the action and lift the hammer out of the way, I still get a click, but if I hold the wippen up and strike the key, I get no click. It doesn=B9t appear to be jack top hitting anything, but I can=B9t find the source of the noise. This is particularly frustrating because I=B9m usually pretty good at diagnosing this sort of thing. I=B9m getting this piano ready for a concert this Friday, so I=B9m beginning to be = a little anxious. Any experience, ideas, or wild speculations out there?
