</font>No sweat -- I sometimes voice with shellac now (ultrablonde,

I've never used it on a fresh set of hammers. I wonder if anyone else
<br>
has used it for initial juicing? So far I've just used a little shellac
<br>
just behind the strike area to add a little brightness, especially in
<br>
the top octave. It seems forgiving, and it doesn't make that
"ping" that <br>
keytop does. <br>
