Dale, I just finished a Steinway M (which is going out today) with the Weickert felt. It took quite a bit of juicing to get it where it needed to be, but I think, (and both my PTG chapter and the customer agrees) that it turned out to be one of the best Steinway M's they have heard. Kudos to Ray, you, and whoever else had a hand in making that felt.

Subject: [pianotech] Weickert Felt by ROnsen
Hi All
Perhaps this has been discussed here since April when I took my leave of abscence. So... Just a quick comment to say that the final development of Weickert felt has been dialed in closely By Wurzen Felt co/Jack Brand. Over the past 1 & 1/2 years Jack Brand,Ray Negron at Ronsen, myself have worked hard at beta testing for feedback and the latest batch of felt is getting good reveiws. I've heard some very positive comments from Star Taylor, & Darrel Fandrich. I think Starr has used them in a Stwy B and a Yamaha of some kind.
Any body else out there with objective or subjective feedback. I'm just working up a BB Mason but I haven't heard them yet.
Thanks
Dale Erwin
