简介

When a piano’s key slip becomes too tight, it can cause piano keys to stick, negatively affecting the instrument. You can use this guide to remove key slips and replace them in a more loose position so that piano keys will not stick.

Piano key slips can sometimes become too tight due to people leaning up against them and normal wear and tear. Tight key slips will prevent musicians from being able to play properly.

Before using this guide, you should check your keys to make sure the key slip is the problem. Strike one of the keys; if the key comes up quickly but the sound continues then the problem is with the hammers and strings. If the key stays down and does not come back up, then this is the guide that will help you!
