Greetings,
A new Steinway D. Going over the action, I notice a knocking sound when
the pedal is used in rapid repetition. I guess people most often call it
"fluttering the pedal", (which calls to mind a goodle Southern boy trying to
impress the flower of the Confederacy). This noise was the result of a
factory defect, and I fixed it with a screwdriver and my cordless drill with
a #9 bit.
It was not in the trapwork. It was not in the underlevers. I didn't touch
the tray.
Regards,
Ed Foote
(oohh, I hope it takes everybody a whole long time, but this is a fast
crew.....)
