Petrof Mini Service

This Petrof upright hadn't had any work carried out on it since it was bought new. The sound was getting a bit harsh and uneven. The owner plays well and also has a small boy who is really coming along with his playing.

First I took the action out and faced the hammers with sandpaper.

Then I took out all the keys.

Lubricated the key bushings and cleaned the Keybed and out the keys back.

Finally I put the action back in the piano and softened and evened the hammers out with my needling tool.

Needless to say the piano sounded great afterwards. With the key bushings now lubricated they should last much longer.
