Tokiwa wippens

Hi Jesse
  Yes the problem was from some years back. Good parts,  nicely made. I'm not 
a big fan of hornbeam shanks.  Some are great  & others twist like rubber 
during burn in & it doesn't matter who  makes them.  Abels maple  Shanks are my 
current favorite. Stiffer too.

I never had any trouble with Tokiwa parts --they always seemed like a  very 
decent replacement for Steinway parts, especially the grand hammer shanks  with 
flanges. The cutout in the Tokiwa hammer flange is a bit larger  than that of 
the original, making the flange position easier to adjust. Hammer  alignment 
is therefore a breeze.
