What exactly are longitudinal wave scaling/voicing issues?

I'm considering a voicing issue in the octave above middle C that sounds like harmonic longitude wave coupling. It is a shimmery sound about 4 octaves above the fundamental and it "appears" shortly after attack and decays along with the rest of the sound. I can barely hear it but it is driving the owner nuts (very sensitive and somewhat obsessive......). The hammers are ready for shaping but the trial hammer that I changed didn't seem to change the problem sound. A bit of voicing seemed to reveal the problem even a bit more. Does this sound to anyone like a problem consistent with a longitudinal wave scaling/voicing issue? Any other ideas? Thanks in advance, Chris Glattly RPT cglattly at rochester.rr.com
