Hi Les,
I'd plug and redrill so as to use single layer felt. I'd also have a
good look at how close the whole set is to developing the same symptom.
Could be a great way to gain some experience in doing this kind of
thing. Even just replacing the entire bass guide rail would be good
experience.
That said... a simple plug for one guide hole is pretty easy to manage
without dismantling too much.
Cheers

I have a customer with a B. (Nice to know isn't it...........) The
first damper after the first break is constantly clacking. I managed
a temporary fix which lasted about six months, but it's back to
noise making. I'm of limited experience with such things, don't
have any double-layered felt, and would appreciate means by which
others have
solved this little problem. thanks much
