I've got a Yamaha C7 (ca '85) whose sostenuto tracker lever is scraping against the U.C. shift lever because the nylon bushing for tracker lever's pivot pin is bunged out, allowing the lever to wander over into contact with the shift lever. According to Yahama this piano doesn't exist <wink>. Does anyone know of the suitable plastic for which I should try to find the right size tubing. Or should I simply plug with maple, and re-drill for a direct wooden hole for the pivot. There are some C7s around which "do exist" but I would have to stop by to confirm that they used this same style pivot bushing.
