This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Two things come to mind initially here.=20 First, try pressing the una-corda pedal if you want the action to slide. = Much more efficient than the sostenuto. ;-) Second, if the action will not come out of the action cavity, check if = perhaps the drop screws are hitting the pinblock (or, if you can't see = the drop screws, could they already be imbedded in the pinblock?) - = could this piano be early 90s vintage? Expanding action brackets? They = can assume the duty of a very effective "locking device"! Let us know what develops. Terry Farrell I tuned a Bergmann/YC BG yesterday with a sostenuto pedal that would = not slide the action. Tried to pull the action to see what was going on = and it would not come out using appropriate force. Seems to me that it = might be as simple as some kind of "locking device" used for shipment = that was not removed in dealer prep - but since I am an independent RPT = and a "newby" full-time tuner I have no experience with this particular = issue. Also, on the same piano, one wing bolt was missing where the pedal = lyre attaches to the bottom of the keybed. Help?
