[pianotech] sticky keys with depressed ....thanks

[Ursula Hammerling]

Thanks Marcel and Ross, I went there yesterday and it was just the usual sticky key problems. Anyway, I am grateful you mentioned the hammer spring thread loop and I looked at them too. They were still strong and fine. Maybe next time?...who knows.

Best regards,
Ursula

Ursula,
You might want to take a closer look at the hammer flange spring loops. I've seen this many times where the loops break and this problem occurs.

Hi list,
On an Asian grey market piano about 30 - 40 yrs. old, there are several sticky keys when the sustain pedal is depressed. What would I have to look for other than the usual sticky key problems? Your comments are appreciated.
