Extra-long damper wedges

[Vanderhoofven]

Dear Mark,

If you find that you need to make your own bass dampers, I would highly
recommend that you get the short technical paper on making your own bass
dampers written by Bill Spurlock.  The information is very inexpensive
($2.00 or $3.00), but will be very helpful to you.  Also, don't forget to
get the damper felt cutting blcok from Bill Spurlock... it works great!
