I'm sorry Rick! I'm the one who is ignorant! I should have noticed
that you have a GranTouch. May I assume that the thump is acoustic and
not coming out of the tone generator? If so, it sounds as though the
thump is in the action. Is it under warranty and have you contacted
your dealer? If you can't get a Yamaha-trained tech, I'd still consider
having any piano tech with a good reputation take a look at the action.
