No, the felt is found between the bracket and the hammer rail FELT not under
the rail.  It stops the rail from going up to the strings too far.  It sits
on the felt where the hammer shanks go on many verticals.

      Another possibility:
      To achieve that shortened strike distance, you may also have to shave
some off the stop felt found above the hammer rail felt.  This is often a
block or blocks of very solid hammer felt trimmings.  This could have
drifted down shortening the travel while the glue was wet.



    Greetings,


                Above the hammer rail felt? Don't you mean beneath the
hammer rail?
