Hi folks!
This Yamaha built Story&Clark model 158 grand is
in a church social hall. The pins have that typical
looseness of Yamahas from the 1960's or 70's, which I
have felt before. The church wants the piano fixed,
but does not have a big budget. The pins have been
driven already.
Otherwise, the piano's in quite good condition.
I was thinking of restringing with "Lo-Torque" pins, a
size or two up, with pinholes swabbed with CA or
epoxy. I would prefer not to replace the block, if
that's acceptable. The pins are uniform, just not
quite tight enough.
What do you recommend?
Gordon Stelter
