Upright and grand action regulation

This textbook shows step by step how to regulate the upright and the grand piano action. It is suitable for self-studies as it very clearly describes complex technical details in both text and pictures. The book is richly illustrated with more than 600 colour photographs. It describes technical terms like test adjustment, the action’s positioning in the piano, setting hammer let-off, hammer blow, after-touch, easing the keys, fine voicing etc. There is a large section of regulating measurements from many different piano makers towards the end of the book. Each chapter ends with questions to review covered areas. There are also flashbacks of technical history in the book.
The 576-page textbook was first published in 2000.
