I have used these felt sets for a couple of years with great results. However, last night and today I was blithely putting in dampers on a Baldwin L. The bichords and trichords simply dont work. I am now replacing them with a set of pre cut Steinway M felt I had in a box that works perfectly. I dont know if this was bad luck in the match of dampers to strings or a bad batch or what, but the taper of the bichords is wider than that of the S&S and they dont seat well, same for the trichords. I have never had this problem before and probably never will again but try your felt before your commit, dont take anything for granted!</div> <div><br></div> <div>Older but not yet wiser,</div> <div><br></div> <div>Dave</div> <div>New Orleans</div> <div><br></div> <div><br></div> <div><br></div> <div><br></div> <div>On 5/1/06, Erwinspiano@aol.com said:</div> <div><br></div> <blockquote type="cite" cite><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000">  Piano-tek,Pacific & Brooks all carry this product.  Pacific is the importer.</font></blockquote> <blockquote type="cite" cite><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000">  Dale Erwin</font><br> <font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000"></font> <blockquote><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000">Hi Gordon -</font></blockquote> <blockquote><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000"> </font></blockquote> <blockquote><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000">Pianotek has a great set of damper felts for grands - ready cut with very good quality felt.  The stock number is FDJ-5W  It will fit any grand with 20-33 bass.  Their phone number is 1-800-347-3854</font></blockquote> <blockquote><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000"> </font></blockquote> <blockquote><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000">Steve Grattan</font></blockquote> <blockquote><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000">Lost Chord Clinic</font></blockquote> <blockquote><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000"> </font><br> <font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000"></font></blockquote> </blockquote> <blockquote type="cite" cite><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000"> </font></blockquote> <blockquote type="cite" cite><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000"> </font></blockquote> <blockquote type="cite" cite><font face="Book Antiqua" size="-1" color="#000000"><i>Dale Erwin--Piano Restorations<br> 4721 Parker Rd.<br> Modesto, Calif 95357<br> Shop 209-577-8397<br> cell 209-985-0990<br> </i></font><a href="http://www.Erwinspiano.com"><font size="+1" color="#000000"><i>http://www.Erwinspiano.com</i></font></a><font face="Book Antiqua" size="-1" color="#000000"><br> <i>Specializing in the Restoration, Service & Sales of<br> Steinway, Mason & Hamlin, & other fine pianos</i></font></blockquote> <div><br></div> </body> </html>
