<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">A customer has a new Kawai RX-2 with a very high and loud overtone on F2. It rings over the F2 whenever the note is sustained as a single note, note of a chord, when the sustain pedal is pressed. Recent tuning had no affect. I squared the hammer to the bicord, checked bridge contact, hitch pins, centers, etc. The duplex is very lively. I couldn’t find the offending partial in the duplex, but I’m not ruling that out. Has anyone come across this in the RX-2? Don Manino…are you out there? <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
