---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Sorry to come in on this late Ola, Contary to what Paul Larudee said, (sorry Paul) the hammers MUST rest on the rail. This is why the hammer rest rail covering is made firm (with a c.1mm felt cover) so as to not interfere with the jack/notch relationship - as per upright action. Hammers at rest above the rail, would surely be resting on the jacks - not ideal! The 'L' shaped spring is designed to facilitate hammer drop. After hammer filing, re-furbish the hammer rest rail so that blow is correct - then regulate jacks up to the notch, but not pushing on it - as per upright action. ' I hope you'll agree that you'd need Uri Gella's help to regulate those 'one legged spiders legs' to a perfect hammer line!!! As has already been mentioned bass hammers would be perilously close to the underside of the plank if they were above the rest rail. Bluthner is happy to field enquiries on their action - their tel no is 0049 342977513 - there's even a Mr Bluthner to speak to !!
