 Selmer-Bundy Spring Replacement?
Author: Ah Clem 
Date:   2006-05-25 23:33

My poor used Selmer-Bundy gets played several hours a day, almost every day of the week. I say poor, because it is subjected to my playing.

The spring for the upper "A" key has broken. It appears to be nothing more than a piece of piano wire that fatigued over time.

I normally like to work on the horn myself but, in this case, I was unable to determine how the springs are actually retained. It appears that the round projection through which the shaft that the key pivots on retains it, but I cannot tell.

As I did not want to damage it, I took it in for repair, but I am curious as to how these springs (the piano wire ones) are retained.

Any information would be greatly apprecieated.

Thank you all in advance.

Ah Clem
