    Kranich and Bach grand, model C141, s/n 49034.   Missing hammer for key 88.  Don't have a replacement.   Any suggestions as to where I might source just one hammer for this repair?

    Most rebuilders have extra small hammers. You need overall length of the hammer and the bore distance. (From the middle of the hole to the top of the hammer).
