Poor Repetition in 1884 Chickering
By Jim Moore

Hi, I have an 1884 7-foot Chickering with a PianoDisc; it has a great
sound.  The problem is with the action, i.e., poor repetition.  I was
curious what the best course would be.

I realize a Renner action replacement would be ideal, but it's a little
pricey at the moment.  If this action is not up to the task can anyone
suggest a good action replacement and a general idea of the cost?
Thanks!
