that the Bacon Felt might be a bit soft for that application and you will need
to use too much hardener. Even the Wurzen might be a bit soft.
Unfortunately, after that anything else takes quite a leap in firmness.
On Yamaha’s, I still prefer something firmer though. It’s a good place
for a Premium Blue. It would be good if some sampling could be
done.</SPAN></FONT></P>

On my Yamaha U3, I want to replace the hammers. I was considering Ronsen,
the German felt ones. Any other suggestions? I gotta change
out these original hammers, I tried voicing them, and got some relief for a
few days, now they sound ear piercing again. They gotta go, before I lose my
hearing!</SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>
