Glass rattle
 
I have a large framed MN Wild jersey at the far other end of my basement. When my bass hits certain frequencies, the glass rattles quite loudly. Short of taking down the jersey, does anyone have a recommendation on how to stop it?

Is it the glass or the whole thing that's vibrating against the wall that it's hanging on? I would assume it's where it meets the wall. You can temporarily put something between the wall and the frame and see if it stops. If it does stop, use some rubber bumpers on the back of the frame where it contacts the wall. The type of bumpers you'd use on a cabinet door to prevent it from loudly slamming shut.

Kyle.......You could put it up on eBay. :D

I have my movie posters screwed to the wall to prevent unwanted vibrations.

My business partner collects movie posters. I just got a full set of bond from him as well as The Last Waltz

It was a gift from 2 guys on the USA "dream team" that beat Russia. I'll never sell it.

Of course

Museum putty works well for certain applications.

I suggest you take it to a local fine-art framing shop (preferably not one in a mall) and tell them you want to fix the rattle. They may be able.

I'm assuming that it's hanging with picture wire and it has pads or bumpers on the bottom corners between the frame and the wall.
