Patrick,

The real mufler felt is thinner in the treble and thicker in the bass, as
you probably noticed yet.

If nothing available , of course standard felt can work, but less well.
There are generally 2 or more qualities of muffler felt, the best one is
known there in Europe as "Celeste" Felt. differences are in thickness and
felt quality.
Yamaha is probably very good if you can obtain it.

      Patrick, I don't see anything special about the felt used on the
mufflers. I would think any similar thickness of felt would do. You can buy
it at a fabric store for about three dollars a square yard, enough to do a
dozen muffler rails.
      Getting it permanently attached to the rail is another story, but I
think you could make it work without too much trouble.

    Hello All: A minor request here. I have a customer who wants the muffler
    rail felt replaced on her old upright.  Does anyone know if local fabric
    stores would possible carry a similiar type of felt, or am I going to
have
    to order it from the supply house? I would normally order it from the
supply
    house, but just put in an order yesterday for other stuff, and am
reluctant
    to make a order for just one $4 item if possible.  Yes, I could wait for
my
    next cumulative order, but just thought someone may have found an
adequate
    substitute. Thanks, Patrick Poulson
