<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hello All: I have taken on the project of bringing
a 1910 Ludwig Feigel 6' grand back to playing condition. It is actually in
very good condition considering it's age, tuneable with a good soundboard and
pinblock. It has what I believe is a Viennese action, with leather covered
hammers. I have no idea as to how this would be regulated, or how to voice the
hammers. The soft leather gives the piano a very dull tone, so I hope to be able
to brighten them up. I don't know if the leather covering is original or not. I
will start by easing the keys, which are all tight on their balance pins. Where
to go from there? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Thanks for your help.</FONT></DIV>
