pianotech@ptg.org I'm working as a concert technician in the Diplomatic quarters of Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Don't try some of the things I may tell you....unless you see them first and understand the risks of certain procedures. Oh carry something to far? I am an extremist tuner technician, that's why I am were I am. I can take as much time as I need to seek excellence. ( and occasionally find it too)! This is all I've ever done all I ever wanted to do... Hey..gotta question for ya. I have been trying to get "YAMAHA PARTS" for Umm, lets just say an even...9 to 10years for my area. I have baseball bat here in my hand, and I'm in the USA, I have made literally dozens of phone calls, Fax's even went to Frankfurt on year to bag the European Rep for parts. I have been referred to everyone but the president of the United States, and....guess what, they are doing the same thing to me here now for more than one week> Anyway...I don't care at this point where these wizards are am on the war path. GIVE ME SOME part!! I'll pay the random... I never had one problem with this company until I went overseas. The YAMAHA, dealer gave me three replacement flanges for a P108...they were produced "locally" I'm sure you have no concept of this term. Description of parts for replacement: 1; About the size and shape of wood 2. Cut with dull chainsaw 3. Bushing material...red ink colored cloth one side, wood the other, 4. Pin something resembling a nail. OK get the picture... FIND ME YAMAHA.....I'll keep the bat until I get my parts. PLEASE. Called them again today...ZERO. I've still got time to catch a plane to ANYWHERE on earth to meet face to face with these gentleman. Sorry....Just got onto a bad one...won't happen again
