[pianotech] choice of hammers - Molding

[Marc Lanthier / Piano Lanco]

Hi,

 

I'd like to start another thread on the choice of hammers, this time
focusing on the molding. I asked this question about a year ago, wanting to
know if the density of the different types of molding (eg. Hornbeam, Walnut,
Mahoganny, etc..) significantly affected the tone. I know that their
densities differ slightly but is that difference significant in the sound.
I've installed at least one of each type since then but have found no
significant difference except for the color.

 

Thanks
