Just an update on the posting I made to the list about a Steinway =
4510 console with a definite ring to it.=20
I want to thank all the people who responded to it, it made me =
think, at least, which is always welcome.
Kent Webb sent out a set of four section dampers which I installed =
as high up on the backing as I could without having any possibility of =
being hit in the future by the hammers, should wear occur. The problem =
was solved!=20
The dampers were a little deeper, and I had to readjust the spoons, =
but other than that it was pretty easy. Hate having to do that in the =
customers home on a piano that they've only had for a few weeks, though.
The dampers came with a little pad of felt on the back for gluing =
the dowels to; With the new dampers lifting late, I surely didn't want =
to make it even worse by adding another 1/8th inch to it, but since the =
pad is toward one end of the damper, I finally figured out that you can =
just glue it to the other side. DUH! I should have thought of that right =
away, instead of pondering it for about five minutes.
Yes, those little pieces of felt DO absorb the entire energy from =
the plate and soundboard!
