Any comments? > >David Love > Hi Dave, This would be my choice, I have just complete a redesign of the Samick made Wurlitzer actions. I opted to use the wip assist spings to support between 15 to 20gms of DW. With a CNC weight off using only 2 leads in the bass . The field trials have been very positive. The feed back from performers, roughly translated, is that the inertia is less noticable, yet secure control on ppp. Side by side comparisons was done with well regulated Yamaha C1 and C2. I opted for 2gms higher DW across the board. Comments like it feels more positive, certainly has made me rethink the value of assist springs when correctly used. They also a great tool to hide some of the discrepency"s of friction and mass. Regards Roger ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
