This is from another tech who does regulation and some hammer hanging =
but went with the prehungs this time. She thought it was a real pain to =
space and align this way and still doesn't like it.

  I think you'd be best off by having a look see for yourself. Course =
you already knew that, but it brings up nicely the subject matter of how =
much we can trust an owners assessment of an instrument... and how much =
we cant. In anycase one needs to be real carefull about making any =
suggestions or comments based on other then first hand information... =
yes ???=20
  Cute !! :)=20

    You're right, my misunderstanding. She said normally they were  =
angled across the strings one way and now they were they opposite. What =
she meant was the string angle is about twelve degrees and the hammer is =
angled 18 degrees. Usually it's less than the string angle. Spacing and =
string alignment was very difficult. This was on a "M". The hammers were =
prehung from Steinway. Still doesn't seem right to me.Keith Roberts=20
      Get outa here !! :).... Bass hammers angled the same as the tenor =
??????? And it aint even April 1st :)=20
