Hi Bob, Well...I'm glad I'm working on this Knabe and not yours! :-) Barbara Richmond, RPT near Peoria, Illinois ----- Original Message ----- From: ITUNEPIANO at aol.com To: caut at ptg.org Sent: Monday, October 15, 2007 7:54 PM Subject: Re: [CAUT] wacky backchecks and Knabe blow distance Hey Barbara, I just finished hanging new shanks and hammers on my Knabe, and have a bunch of shanks rubbing against the next shank at the flange. Looks like I'll be sanding the sides down. On a positive note, after a quick capstan adjustment, I've got nice aftertouch and the keys are fairly level - which brings me to another problem - the capstans are too loose, so off will come the stack so I can tighten loose capstans. On blow distance, sometimes you have to go with whatever works - especially if hammers and other parts are worn.
