So Dale, you don't need to deep needle in the shoulders? David Ilvedson, RPT Pacifica, CA 94044 Original message From: erwinspiano at aol.com To: pianotech at ptg.org, ray at ronsen-hammer.com Received: 2/13/2009 10:08:05 PM Subject: [pianotech] Weickert special felt update Just a brief note: I just today installed a set of Concert density Weickerts special felt in my own Steinway B & they are awesome. I wanted something more from the piano & these hammers deliver. Fantastic clarity in the top half of the piano. It's a bit dark like the D in the bottom end I posted about but I'm going to file & iron it a bit and give it some time to work things out. This piano was at convention last year in the rebuilders gallery. Some notes may need even need a bit of light needling soon to open up the tone but so far I'm thrilled. The piano will go to convention as is with just filing, string mating & a couple tunings pounded in. Fantastic color/ power the bottom end Needs play in but the piano sounds like it just got a 6 inches longer. If any are coming to the convention come by the booth and say hi or to the Ronsen Class. The piano will be played in class to demonstrate these hammers. By the way Jack Brand of Wurzen is giving his Felt Class which is sponsored by Ronsen piano hammer & Renner USA. Ray/Dale Rick Baldassin & Lloyd Meyer will be present to lend support & answer any questions but Jack will have the Bully pulpit.
