I don't think that is what it is. I believe I have found the culprit, but it is a new one on me.<br>

<div>It isn't a young piano. I'd suggest that you check the hardness
of the jack stop felt. This is very likely the culprit, since a slow
return of the key will generally result in a slowing of the jack
return-to-rest speed, which will reduce the jack noise when the
instrument is being played softly.</div>

<blockquote type="cite">Yes, you read that correctly, this is a
Yamaha model G (not C) 7, s/n 3xxxxx. When the key is released
slowly, the click isn't noticeable. However, on a quick release,
it is annoyingly prominent. What is the cause?</blockquote>
