Steinway action noise

[Greg Newell]

William,
	Well, maybe. But the Renner parts kit didn't yield any fixes either.
Are all 3 Steinway samples in the kit Hamburg parts?

Hey Greg and all,

S&S does offer hexagonal shanks.  You can get them out of NY, and yes, they 
are the "Hamburg" style.  My money would be on someone using Hamburg parts 
here.
