<DIV> Does anyone call Steinway about these heavy
actions? What do they say? Or do they deny any accusations =
of having
built anything "wrong"? Or is it not "wrong", but just heavy to =
certain
players? </DIV>
<DIV> Has Steinway changed capstan alignment or angle =
or
knuckle size recently? </DIV>
<DIV> If this were a new company just starting up, I =
could see
how there might be action problems to iron out, but if a certain size =
action is
basically the same as the one in front of or behind it on the assembly =
line, how
can there be that much variance? </DIV>
