This action can be removed as easily as a console action. Don't <br>disconnect the rods. If the pins are tight enough to be tuned at<br>this time of year, thats unusual. I believe they were made in the<br>late 30s to early 50s in Newark NJ.

<div>Tuned this beast on Sat. It had a strange action, looked like flanges that the rods attached to were screwed to a bottom panel which would make it very hard to pull the action even after disconnecting all the rods.The
flanges in question attached to the whippen.</div>
<div>Glad I didn't lose any strings... What is the age of this piano? #110590, and how would I remove this action with the least amount frustration?</div>
