Luis, <br><br>
By "stiff", so you mean heavy? If the friction in all the
pinning is OK, then IMO, it's a geometry problem. <br>
You didn't mention the brand. That might help. <br><br>

<dd><font face="Arial, Helvetica" size=2>have recently completed course
work from The American School of Piano Tuning and have a technical
question about my own home piano, a Samick 5\'2\" Baby Grand.<br>
<dd>It has always had a stiff action and over the last 12 years has
loosened some but is still hard to play and requires a heavier
touch. Is there something I can do to loosen the action a bit more
including silicone sprays or other adjustments to the action.<br>
<dd>I would be happy to pay for a techinician from the guild to come and
help me on this matter.<br>
<dd>Gracias!<br>
