Wurlitzer Damper Springs

[KeyKat88 at aol.com]

Greetings,

           I had a customer this morning that has a Wurly console and a good 
majority of the bass strings havw extraneous ringing problems. When I press on 
the string to see if the damper follows or "hugs" the string most do not 
follow. I am thinkng this piano needs new damper springs. 

      Question: Would it be easier to replace merely the springs or should I 
replace the whole damper lever and remount and adjust the heads/felts?  
or....is there a quick fix that would effectively solve the problem and buy more 
time? What would be the most cost effective? Do they even make damper levers to 
fit this piano anymore? The bridges look  decent, (hardly any / minimal 
splitting), action parts look good, not dried out, strings are not rusty and the 
tuning pins are tight. I think it is worth fixing the problem.

Thanks in advance,
