Hello, one of my clients has a 1915 Pleyel grand piano. The actions are different from normal. Is there anyone who can tell me more? I have never seen it before.

Is it similar to this? But with the pin at the bottom without the repetition lever height adjustment, which is fixed.... and the spring to be wound with the screw.... They were used in the late 1800s/early 1900s, even Steinway sometimes. Does it have the spring on the pusher underneath?

I think so. Anyway, it is not easy to regulate because it works a bit differently from modern mechanics.
