In the past months = I've noticed that the mono string dampers, from A0 thru G#1, are hanging = up and will not return completely to the string after being played. After very close = inspection I see that the bottom of the dampers, either side of the _/\_ = are expanding out from being square and are now rubbing on the neighbor = damper felt sides. Haven't had the problem before and need some advice on what to do. =20 Can one trim the felt sides of the dampers without damaging the damper = beyond its usefulness? If so, what does one use to trim the felt? Many thanks in advance.
