I have never heard of nor seen such an arrangement. Perhaps someone else is aware of some reason for this design. If not, IMHO, I would proceed in a manner consistent with Bill Spurlock's bass damper replacement method. He has instructional pamphlets available on his web site. While you're at it, I highly recommend getting a copy of all his instructional pamphlets. You can't go wrong with them. The dude has piano sense the size of Texas! Terry Farrell ----- Original Message ----- I want to replace the bass dampers on a piano that has a damper arrangement I haven't seen before. All the bass dampers are flat felts on the front and back with wedges and split wedges sandwiched in the middle (at the wire). Should I be trying to duplicate this arrangement or go with all wedges etc.? I'm a little concerned with getting the two types of felt to seat equally. I realize that alot of pianos have combinations, it's finding the right combination that I'm worried about. Any wisdom?
