I look at hammer blow and it is at 1 3/4". Let off is at 1 1/2".   Yikes, I say! The rest of the keys all let off around 1/8". Piano just was moved, but under supervision of owner. No visible signs of damage anywhere. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Question: How did the last octave plus get in this condition, which customer swears is a new problem since move? I'm stumped. I don't want to do the adjustment to let off with out understanding the problem of how it got so far off in this one area.
