Damper Overring inn Ludwig Upright

List,

I have a customer who has a nice old Ludwig upright that has a problem with 
partials being excited because of where the dampers land on the strings--I 
think.  There is quite a bit of overring when the dampers move back onto the 
strings.  Isn't this why Steinway used double dampers near the bass break in 
some of their uprights?  

I worked on a Yamaha WX-7 today that had the beefiest dampers I've ever seen 
in the upper bass section, and double dampers just above the break.  No 
overring there.  

The customer would like to get rid of the problem.  Any suggestions on this 
besides replacing all of the dampers?  

Thanks in advance for any input,

Dave Stahl
