[pianotech] Rebushing - New Article

[John Delacour]

The recent discussion of centres etc. has raised some interesting 
points and there are may other relevant points that have not been 
mentioned.

The piano that is the subject of my article on Grand Hammer Rebushing 
is 140 years old.  I am having to rebush the hammers because someone 
else has re-centred them at some point.  I don't expect hammer 
centres to remain trouble-free for 140 years but it's not 
unreasonable to hope that the other centres will, and in fact that is 
the case with this piano, though I must admit it seems to have had a 
pretty quiet life.

Here is the article:
