U2>30 yrs . It could be hammer to string contact. I have done a few and it helps. Not sure about the single bass strings though. Most grey market U series have this problem.

On a sharp release, F#1 - A#1, F#2 - A#2, F#3 - A#3 dampen, but not completely, AND, there is a high pitched sound, probably a high overtone, but I don't know which pitch. All the parameters for dampers are correct. I just replaced all the hammer flanges with new spring cords. The student likes the way the piano plays, but is now complaining about the additional noise from the piano. Perhaps she never noticed before, (I didn't when I tuned it four weeks ago), so she thinks it is related to the new flagnes. HELP!!!
