I have done that on a number of occasions to pianos... but never with such results as this. I am telling you, any and all false beatings were completely, and I mean completely eliminated while I held down the pressure. Tone clarity seemed improved as well. Surely this speaks of some kind of string to bridge contact situation...??? but then just what that really entails.. Cant think it has to do with increased mass from the screw driver as the result was variable in relationship to the amount of pressure I applied. It was weird...as I increased the pressure the false beating slowed..until at some point of increased pressure on the pin it simply dissapeared.. -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F. Bergen, Norway
