Piano Key Touch Weight & Player Repetition Rate
By John A. Tuttle

Hi All,  Larry Toto wants to change the touch weight and is considering
changing the hammer return springs.  Professionally speaking, I wouldn't
do the job that way.  I'd add lead weights to the keys just like they
do in fine pianos.

Musically,

John A. Tuttle
