<DIV><SPAN class=864242921-28092004><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have =
copies of
both books. I believe the second book contains everything in =
the
first, plus much more. I would get the second one if you have a
choice. His books are very thorough, and do give step by step =
information
on regulation. There is an excellent publication from PTG called =
the Piano
Action Handbook that gives specifications by model. Of course a =
service
manual for your specific piano is good if it's =
available.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
