Its not >that expensive...IMO I presume the cut sets I get for Steinways are from Steinway NY. Perhaps the clip, wedge and split are a bit softer. As for the flats I don't know how they compare with the Japanese felt because I make all my treble felts myself from sheets of Laoureux (French) felt. This and the Steinway stuff is very similar if not the same. I don't buy cut sets except for Steinway. JD
