Grand and Upright Piano Hammers
HAMMER
WORK TOOLS
These tools are
necessary if you intend to do a whole
set of hammers--
Even a whole
section. They assure you the best
chance of removing the old hammer
without damaging the shank.
Also, you can choose to buy hammers without
holes drilled and
do them yourself. For square grands this is absolutely
needed.
