Carman - Great that Y.C. will honor their warranty. For other pianos out there, I stock and can supply strips of black patent suede for grand music desks. This is not a plastic material, rather a special fabric for this purpose. I shouldn't crumble with age. You will probably crumble with age!!! :-)Of course, there may be some wear over the years, but it will never look as unsightly as the music desks with cheap black felt, which seems to be the norm. (If there is enough demand, I can bring in brown as well) I carry strips in 1 3/4 or 2" width (or cut to suit). Samples available.

It looks unsightly and the debris is falling into the tuning pin area. The material that is in there is not suede. If you push your thumbnail into it there is a mark left. As if it were some sort of plastic. Any idea on what they used to use? I finally reached the folks at Young Chang and although they will send some replacement suede, I still need to know how to extract that old material.
