And the answer was . . . . . As a violin bows across the string, causing it to vibrate and sing, so the multiple damper wires, all original components and a bit corroded, (probably cigarette smoke from last owner), passed through their bushings, they set the treble damper guide rail humming. "C5 Squeeeek!!!" I discovered it by pedaling while pushing on the guide rail through the strings with a screwdriver. Quick Solution, tighten all the guide rail screws. No More Squeak. Better solution, rebush the guide rail . . . OK, I will, when I rebuild, sometime in the next millennium. We are going to be gone all weekend and I didn't want to make all you good folks lose sleep.
