Damper lifter rod hooks

[David Porritt]

Jack:

I've always thought that if my time were worth anything (maybe it isn't
but...) replacing the whole damper lifter rod with new hooks was easier
and faster (read cheaper) than replacing the hook.  On pianos where the
new rod is not available that's a different story.
