<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Greetings, </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> What is the difference between
upweight and downweight on a piano key? Which one is which: fore or aft the
balance rail? Do these ratios, as one
factor, differ consequentially in grands as opposed to upright
pianos? A general intoductory explaination would be appreciated.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks in advance,</DIV>
