    I beleive that has been a standard S,S, model B plate has been changed 
for at least five years or longer. If I talk to Scott I'll ask him,
       By the way when making a quick check of this just play chromatically 
from f octave 5 thru f octave 6 & listen to the quality of the tone, then do 
the same with the action shifted making sure it clears or is clearing the 
left hand string. If it is dramatically nasal and weak slide the whole action 
in and out.I.E. equal amounts bass and treble appox. i/8" or so and recheck.
        It is possible that the hammers have been so over hardened/or shaped 
to death to compensate tonally for the poor placement that after moving them 
they will sound a bit choked and voicing will now be more affective. Often 
rinsing the whole hammer with acetone can wash the lacer out or farther down 
in the hammer and restore the tone.
