Greetings all, 
Inre damper replacements , Keith writes:
<<When considering replacement parts for Steinway pianos, here is something

to take into consideration: "If it doesn't have 12,116 genuine Steinway

parts, it isn't a Steinway."

     The Renner kit is, IMHO, the best thing going for all of the damper
systems found in the 1960-1983 Steinways.  Those pianos that have them are
regarded, accepted, and played as Steinways.........
       I have tried the factory replacements and the Renner just produces a
more controllable result.  It is more work, but with careful attentionto
geometry, a great improvement can be made in the typical 1960's pianos.  
  Using the kit with the older models often presents problems with damper/sos.
rod clearance, as it relates to the backchecks,  but this can be solved by
other means.
