Rippen comes to mind too.  I recently encountered a Becker grand. It 
was donated to a school.
I stopped trying to regulate it when I couldn't adjust the height of 
the jack lower in the repetition
lever.  It has a Schwander-type whippen and the spring was resting on 
the whippen body, so
no adjustment, no regulation.  I though of replacing the whippens but 
the sound of the PSO
is so bad that I told them not to sell it to a student but only to 
someone who needs an
ancestral portraiture display.
