Wow, that's surprising.  I thought it was a deficiency of modern upright =
dampers that they don't damp (not dampen! :-) near the strike point, =
like grand dampers do.

  ...the closer you get to the string termination the less effective the =
damper will be to absorb the vibrating energy. This fact was established =
in the time of around 1850 or so. Sooooooo, again, The Over Ring IS =
intentional and should only be moderated, NOT eliminated, because it is =
impossible, given the action geometry & physical characteristics.
