<td valign="top" style="font:inherit;">List, this is a brand new piano, made in USA. Cleaned a black substance off of damper wires which were returning slowly or not at all.<BR>Looked similar to center pin issue in Asian pianos.<BR>Anyone see this before? I have more pics as well. Reamed bushing and used clp and ironed bushing and so far so good.<BR><BR></td>
