Here's one way smooth out that tenor bass break on a Steinway M. The first photo shows mass loading at the end of the tenor bridge. A small hole was drilled in the extension to receive a screw. A portion of the brass weights needed to be ground off to miss the plate to allow seating on the small bridge extension. Attaching from underneath is more difficult because of the postion of the bracing directly below. The second photo shows slightly less mass loading at the end of the bass bridge where there was more access from underneath. Restringing the bass would have helped a bit too but wasn't in the cards for this particular piano. All are easily removeable should you have the need.
