O.K., so pull out one of those pins and see if you can hear a difference.

   I assumed downbearing too, so I pulled out the rocker gauge and was surprised to find good downbearing throughout the entire piano. Didn't check for crown though.

  It may have been an improvement decades ago, but those strings were dead. I played across the pinned and non-pinned areas with my eyes closed, listening very closely for any 

  tonal improvement, but was consistent. Consistently poor, but consistent. As for measuring the harmonic envelope, maybe on the next visit, or if it ends up in my home shop.
