Is the 'guy' actually Russian trained? I had a customer who was Russian trained, and she thought 'all' the pianos were too light. I never actually checked any of them, since the actual customer was not interested in changing things. I got the feeling that it was because 'all' the Russian pianos she had trained on, had a heavy touch. Doesn't help solve your problem, but might be the reason for the why. Possibly Isaac would know if the heavy weight was the norm, in Russia?
