Steinway Wing Nuts

[Eugenia Carter]

Jeannie,

I ordered some of these from Yamaha last year. They are more expensive (if
memory serves correctly around $25 ea.), but I liked them much more. I don't
think the old wing-type is still available from Yamaha.

I may be wrong, but I don't think they are made for Steinway; they are made
for Yamaha. A quick phone call to Yamaha will let you know.
