Yes! I have a customer wanting me to do a complete action overhaul on his piano with these funny parts. I at first refused, but with his insistence, I am planning to replace all the parts. I have ordered some samples that I believe will work if I modify the hammer rail. In a week or so, I'll know exactly how to get this lively little piano playing again. I have managed to get through many decades of work with a clear conscience, but the one time I tried to regulate and repair that type of action was a disaster, one from which my fragile soul has yet to recover. Don't do it!! You'll be sorry. But . . if I am successful in the action modification, I will have 88 of these things available for you.
