Key Whacker/Thumper

[Farrell]

Yes, I have black electrical rubber tape on this whacker (mine is a whacker, not a thumper). My first one I had epoxied together - worked very well, but I left it in some piano somewhere. I had to throw something together fast, so I just taped them - that was maybe three years ago......

BTW: Use grand hammers and overlap the tails in opposite directions.

  I have some old hammers from actions I could use. I imagine the black material in the middle is electrical tape right?

    Yes. And don't let anyone tell you that those harder-than-#&$% Yamaha hammers are good-for-nothing!
