<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>A customer has a big old Everett (full =
size
upright), and is complaining about too much "echo" (i.e., =
overtones). I've
agreed to replace the dampers,which are old and worn, and noticed that =
the bass
dampers are 1 3/8". Does anybody know if (1) any older =
uprights
originally used dampers this size and (2) if old-style, 1 3/4" bass =
dampers
would do better blocking out harmonics. Thanks in =
advance</FONT></DIV>
