The Laoureux felt seems to be good quality, but the cutting is getting worse and worse, more and more on the bias. I have a few more sets of precut, which I am saving for miserable low quality uprights, where it works all right, just looks bad, even if you point them all the same way. Otherwise I've started buying the uncut Laoureux felt, and cutting it with the jig that Pianotek sells. I'd also be interested in other sources that people have found work for them. I'd like to go with the Yamaha sets already on blocks, but for everyday work it is a little expensive. Sincerely, Susan Susan Kline P.O.
