I'm replacing the repetitions in a S&S model C which has (from a 70's rebuild) teflon bushings and hard, noisy pads in the reps. My problem is... the piano is used to the local 70+ humidity. If I dehumidify it, I'm afraid the other friction points and block will get loose. I need new parts that can take some humidity without swelling. I was planning to get S&S factory parts at the owner's request, but I don't know if they will tighten up. I hope someone can suggest an alternate high-quality brand that can take the wet. Renner didn't work out in another piano here. Japanese? Karin Schmitt Florida Keys
