Hi Wim,
If you choose a different amount of stretch, you might find the ghosties =
will go away.
MIGHT not a garentee.

  Subject: after ring


  A student left me a note complaining about an after ring on our =
Recital Hall 1 year old B. I went to check it out, and sure enough in =
the 6th octave, when notes are release, there is a definite after ring. =
If I hold my finger on the string, it is still there. The dampers are =
seated, and there is enough follow through. I found that if I damper out =
the undampened 7th octave notes, the after ring is gone. So the sound =
I'm hearing is the 7th octave ringing through.=20

  I've never really noticed it before. But now that it has been brought =
to my attention, it is very distinctive. Apparently the strident thinks =
so too.=20

  Is this just a normal phenomenon on Steinway B's, or is there =
something that can be done to eliminate this problem?
