Rare. Similar to the Amphion and the Ampico actions used in pianos made by the American Piano Company. The valves are similar to those found in a Standard action. The obvious difference between the American action and all those just mentioned is the placement of the striker pneumatics and the linkage, which is designed to attack the abstracts in the piano action instead of the wippens. Also, the lost motion adjustments are conveniently located for ease of maintenance. Valve travel is adjusted using paper punchings of various thicknesses.

Since "Player-Care" is an internet business, I prefer that we correspond via E-Mail (click here to fill out the 'Request Form'). However, if I'm not in the middle of some other activity, you can reach me at 732-840-8787. But please understand that during the hours from 8AM-5PM EST (Mon-Sat), I'm generally quite busy. So, I probably won't answer the phone. If you get the answering machine, please leave a detailed message stating the reason for your call. Also, repeat your name and phone number clearly and distinctly. By necessity, I prioritize everything in my life. And, if you call and just leave your name and number, and ask me to call you back, it might be a day or two before I return your call. Why? Because I don't know why you want me to call and I might not be prepared to assist you in an effective and efficient manner. If you leave me an E-Mail address (which I prefer), spell it out phonetically. The more you do to help me, the more I can help you in return. Don't rush. You have four minutes to record your message.
