The coils = don’t actually overlap but can still cause noise. A strip of bushing cloth = woven in and out of the coils on one side of the spring takes care of the problem = and makes you the hero while making a permanent repair that others may have = missed. (Remember, this applies to Baldwins and others pianos with coil trap = springs.)   <div> Allan Allan L. = Gilreath </div>   -----Original = Message----- From: = caut-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:caut-bounces@ptg.org] On = Behalf Of Clarence Zeches Sent: Wednesday, March = 30, 2005 9:57 PM To: caut@ptg.org Subject: [CAUT] Story = & Clark Prelude 152   I received a call from a = music store about a squeaking pedal on a new Story & Clark Prelude 152 baby grand.  Two other tech’s have looked at it and have not been = able to find the problem.  This piano is made in China, it has the coil springs above the trap work against the piano.  I will be = going to look at this next week.  Anyone had any experience with this = problem on these pianos?  I am usually able to find these problems, but any suggestions would be appreciated.   Clarence = Zeches   </div> </body> </html>
