<< This was on my own piano, a 1913 Steinway model O, as yet not rebuilt, a
 soft but audible squeeky sustaining pedal, Steinway O, 1913, all original
 stuff.
 
 The squeek was pitched at C5, occured on the depression of the sustaining
 pedal, was not in the pedals or lyre mechanism, could be reproduced by
 pushing up on the damper tray.  
 
 It took me 45 minutes to find it, very exasperating, but in 23 years of
 tuning, a 'first timer' for me.
 
 I'll give more clues later if nobody gets it soon.
