[CAUT] damper guider rails

[David Love]

It's always better to wait until it's strung before installing the guide
rails.  Insert a few dampers in each section with the old back action in
place.  Align so that the damper wires are centered between strings (eyeball
the other guide rail holes to be sure they are centered) and such that the
wires are going straight down into the top flange on the underlevers.  Mark
and drill.

List, 

I just got our Steinway A back from getting a new board, bridges, etc
replaced.  The damper guide rail was not reattached and no new holes were
drilled in the board for the screws. 

>From where do I measure to align the rail back properly so the dampers will
be in the right place? 

Thanks in advance! 

Paul
