This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Get Bill Spurlock's guide to upright damper replacement. He shows how to = custom make and place oversize bass dampers. If you don't want to make = them, I can make a set for you. Piano Forte Supply also has pre-made = bass dampers in 55mm and 67mm lengths (gotta make sure felt is right = size though). How is spring tension and damper flange centers? Just remember that new = felt won't make it like new if your springs are weak. Terry Farrell ----- Original Message -----=20 From: John Peters=20 To: Pianotech=20 Sent: Saturday, May 21, 2005 12:07 AM Subject: Upright Dampers, Everett A customer has a big old Everett (full size upright), and is = complaining about too much "echo" (i.e., overtones). I've agreed to = replace the dampers,which are old and worn, and noticed that the bass = dampers are 1 3/8". Does anybody know if (1) any older uprights = originally used dampers this size and (2) if old-style, 1 3/4" bass = dampers would do better blocking out harmonics.
