Or maybe it's a voicing issue.

One of the things that I have found to cause inability to play softly, is looseness of the hammer flange centre pins.

Does anyone have the specs for a five yr old Knabe grand? I don't have the model number, but it's under 6', if that helps. The complaint is that it doesn't play expressively i.e. hard to play softly with any control. I'm looking at it tomorrow and would appreciate any comments from anyone with experience with these. I presume that it'll need regulating but I'm also wondering about the geometry and touch weight. 

Thanks in advance
