You can add weight to the hammers in the form of micro clips but it can add volume and percussiveness to the tone which is often unwanted on that piano. Removing lead will give a better feel (heavier touchweight with lower inertia) without compromising tone. Takes only slightly longer and when you add readjusting the rep spring with the clips, I'm not sure it really does take any longer anyway. Get a set of Deadleaders if you don't have one.

She feels the action is "too Light". What can be done to make the action feel heavier ? _________________________________________________________________ PC Magazine's 2007 editors' choice for best Web mail-award-winning Windows Live Hotmail. http://imagine-windowslive.com/hotmail/?locale=en-us&ocid=TXT_TAGHM_migratio n_HM_mini_pcmag_0507
