"Bridle straps were much too tight- probably intentionally done by previous
tech to compensate for broken butt cords. Using soft pedal then pulls the
wippens too high and the spoon on some of them is lifting the damper. "
 
Dean,
Both you and Isaac have the right idea, but the main cause has eluded
you.<G> The fix part is what I'm aiming for.<G>
I'm suprised no one has even come close on the second probem, (which is
unrelated to the first problem.<G>)
