Wurlitzer Electric Piano Key Weights ::
Key weights are used to give the piano a more substantial feel. The action feels more weighted like a real grand piano. The key weights also help in problamatic action, such as a worn action that no longer has any " feel to it" an action that no longer has tension or snap. When a piano is not regulated properly the keys can become sluggish and not return fast enough, the weights on the end of the key counter act this issue and drop the key immediately, which drops the whip assembly just as fast in reaction to the keys movement. This helps in fast and slow movements otherwise the fly gets caught up in the hammers catcher and trips up the hammer. The results of a poorly regulated action are double striking, hammers that are tripped up on slow movements with a sustain pedal engaged. etc etc..
