Ed,

Did you actually time the sustain of the plucked  strings?  Check the pinning
of the hammer flanges, check the  regulation.  Try moving the action in and
out a bit to see if the tone  improves.  Needling on the shoulders (lower for
sustain, a little  higher for bloom) should open it up.  Are the shanks
tapered in the  section?  You can test to see if hammer weight is a problem
by taking  a (or more) hammer assembly from a higher note and trying it  the
section.

Have fun.
