list, o list
     Olde Steinway wippens have a piece of damper-looking felt in the
jack slot instead of a big red felt punching on the jack, for a
jack-rest.  So there is this slapping noise when you release the key
slightly after playing a note.  Is there a quick, Downy Fabric
Softener-type solution for this, or do you have to cut new felts and
fit them (please, say I don't have to)?
