Or do they propose to choose between VFG or Wurzen for their hammers? =20 I remarked that the Abel VFG hammers that are sold in sets (without boring) are really nicely shaped, although the Renner sets of hammers with Wurzen are looking more "rough". Does it has to do with the press they use, or do Abel workers iron the hammers after the gluing process, so that the hammer looks fine? =20 Thanks, =20 Q. I'll show you a year old picture of our Bechstein hammer, made for us by Renner. _____ =20 =20 <mhtml:file:///C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\David%20Ilvedson\Local%20Se ttings\Temp\xPlus\024043D3-A86D-462F-B0C0-D762272F606F.mht!CID:{17FA83F2 -70C0-4007-8804-67C002BB931D}/Bech 1.jpg>=20 _____ =20 This is a typical example of a magnificent, custom made, hammer with Wzen AA quality. No sanding, no dope, no ironing (which I think kills felt anyway) no nothing. Just glued in a very modern press. Over time we have altered this hammer : it is now in walnut, with a different tail, and the weight has been changed to our specifics. This is the miracle hammer of my choice for Bechstein grands. friendly greetings from Andr=E9 Oorebeek www.concertpianoservice.nl "Where music is no harm can be" ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
