Yamaha felt is only available from Yamaha, right?

I've always had good luck with Yamaha felt, but I also like Steinway felt 
as well.  I never learned more about dampers than from Ken Sloane at 
Oberlin.

While we are on the subject of dampers, I would like to hear what brands 
of damper felt has proven most effective for you all over the years.

You may select different kinds for different situations and that would be 
good to hear about as well.

One friend in a large rebuilding shop told me he always uses Steinway felt 
- on all pianos. 

I have tried Renner, Steinway and the basic Piano Tek felt (?Tokiwa).  The 
jury is still out for my favorite.

Damper work, to me, is one of the most challenging areas of rebuilding and 
I hope we will continue to discuss it.
