thought of another question after I hit send.<br><br>
So, if this segment is unmuted by design, why did Baldwin increase the
thickness of this felt to obviously dampen the segment in later models of
the SF?<br><br>

</blockquote>Hi Jeff,<br>
On the design side, the original was the way Harold wanted
it. Customer and Tech feed back prompted the change.<br>
The condition of the hammers and the way strings and hammers are fitted,
will have a huge effect on how this system sounds.<br>
To work well, the hammer needs to be a bit softer and more flexible in
the shoulder. To be quite honest, I have no problems working
with this system.<br><br>
