Greetings,
Ok, this ain't working. Maybe someone else has found the easy way around
this problem.
1917 Steinway M, complete action restoration, went just fine until I
replaced the underlever assembly with a factory replacement. There is not
enough room for the sostenuto rod between the backchecks and the damper tabs. I
have even moved the entire underlever assembly distal about as far as it would
go and it still is interfering.
I am wondering if replacing the sos. rod with a late model rod will help?
The original is one of the "cast" looking rods, and it appears to be larger
than the modern ones. Anybody run into this and found a way through it?
Thanks,
Ed Foote RPT
