  • A Steinway Grand in a college practice room has a pronounced click when you release the key. The problem turns out to be a loose key lead in the key which is repaired by swedging the key lead tighter in the hole.

      That piano is in a practice room at the Utah State University, surrounded by practice rooms. Lots of repertoire being played at pretty much any hour of the day!

    I have pliers from Renner that squeeze the lead.
    Love your tip.

      I love those pliers! They use to sell them from Steinway but don't anymore. I wondered where I could get some. Thanks for the info!

    I can't imagine what this would cost to fix. My baby grand has a few keys clicking. As it happens, I have been leaving the A/C on 78 for a month or two. 😢

    Too harsh butcher with the screw driver and hammer like a junk yard mechanic on a beautiful Steinway, Is he certifies from Steinway?

      Ha ha! Yes, I am factory-trained and authorized by Steinway. What tool do you like to use to swedge leads?

      I was a bit surprised when he put the top part of the action, the hammers, vertically aside. I never do that. the clicking noise that some hammers make have many causes, he was just showing one cause I guess.
