The moving parts of most pianos are made of wood, felt, leather, metal and some plastic. Over time these parts flex and compress to cause the pianos movements to be more difficult. During the process of regulation we compare the current condition of the piano with the manufacturers original specifications and then follow a 42 step process to make the necessary adjustments to allow the piano to play evenly.
Below are examples of visible regulation needs from a Grand piano and the end result after regulating the action.
