Dear F-minor-
If my memory is right the Yamaha Glenn used had "major" modification,
change might be more proper word.
But it's best you consult with good piano tuners.
I also read GG's modification sacrifice dynamics. The hammers are closer to
the strings preparing the hits. That may hit the strings twice. And it's
easy to imagine that mechanically it reduce the power but
responsiveness.
Good luck!

Regulation
Dear F-Minor!
I have read somewhere that pianos are delivered regulated to
certain factory specifications, but that it is possible to make small
modifications to accommodate the player. When I played Gould's Yamaha I
noticed that it was very responsive. It sounded just the way you wanted
it to sound; totally different from any other new Yamaha grands I have played.
My question is whether Gould was lucky in finding a totally unique instrument
or if that very special touch is the result of certain regulations (at the
expense of some other qualities).
If Gould regulated his piano, which were the lost qualites? Is
it possible to regulate my Bechstein Model M to bring it at least one
step closer to the Gould-Yamaha-responsiveness?
Thanksfully yours,
DAVID RAMEZANI
