In the August 21, 1999, MMDigest, Andy Taylor said,
"One very good player action that has got a bad rap is the Steger
Artemis. This action has its valves suspended by a piece of zephyr
skin, and the valves don't always pull tight. There are several
ways around this problem, including replacing the valves with
Standard-type valves and guides. The old Artemis is still playing,
and it's as tight as any other player."

The part about "replacing the valves with Standard-type valves and
guides" intrigued me. Is it possible that at some point this had been
done to my Steger action? There is no evidence of any zephyr-skin tabs
ever being used in the stack. Or, if they had been, it must have been
for a _very_ short time, like one to two weeks.
