New Player Pianos

[Ron Nossaman]

Hi Marcel,

That volume control lifts the hammer rail below a certain setting. It's hard on the butts in the long run and usually doesn't reduce the volume enough to meet the expectations. Also, when the player is turned off with the volume at the lowest setting, the
 hammer rail stays up. When an actual human sits down to play it, they raise hell about the touch, and you get an irate call about what a dog the piano is. You have to explain over the phone that they need to turn on the player, raise the volume level, an
d turn it back off to heal it up. Be prepared to do this about ten times the first year. If the piano comes with a muffler rail, that's the way to go. Like Keith says, you will have the full volume range at your disposal.
