The school whose Steinways I service is not satisfied with the dealer's warranty fix (greater then 1" blow distance). Andrew, Not sure what you mean by this ("greater then 1" blow distance"). Did you mean greater than 2" (since it sounds like the strings are too high)?

They are requesting that the piano be made to play like it should which will require shimming the stack so it is within reach of the strings (>1/4" between fully backed out drop-screws and pinblock). Has anyone done this? What was the scope of work required? What is a reasonable amount of time to complete the work?
