High overtone

[tim.geinert at wapin.com]

Paul,
Once upon a time, I found a bass damper on a low end oriental grand that 
leaked, and defied all rational checks.  It turned out that I needed to 
voice it down, it was very "hot" and it "over-excited" the string.  Needling 
made the leak go away.  Good luck.
