Good Folks,

 

On an Estonia 190 (6'3"), am experiencing damper zing at G2, (second note up
from tenor break, if memory serves..) in a bad way.  Damper seems to be
coming down on a node (?).   Surrounding notes are ok.

Archive research suggests the following:

1)       Add weight to underlever

2)       Tilt damper head one way or t'other (as Dr. Wisner recently also
suggested)

3)       Re-configure damper felt on the head to possibly avoid node

4)       Voice damper felt

 

Have tried #2 and #4, with no success.  Am not sure #1 is proper cure for
this new piano, as it will presumably change touchweight unevenly.  Could
try #3, if other courses of attack don't present themselves, but am not sure
what new configuration of felt might work best.

 

Can anyone suggest other means, or point me in the right direction here?

 

Thanks again,

Chuck Christus
