Hi All, Regarding Steinway pedal hardware - does anyone have a supplier for the fine-threaded round-head screws that are used to secure the pedals onto the pivot rod via those back-plates (or whatever those plates are called)? I'm not talking about the flat-headed screws that secure the pedal pivot rod into the flanges on the back-side of the brass front plate. Chad at Steinway says that the new Steinway pedals are being made for them with the screws & plates already assembled and individual screws are not available from their supplier. Besides, the new pedals now have a slightly larger screw holding this plate on... which is probably a good idea given how easily the slots in the heads bugger and/or threads strip when overly ambitious students tighten them!
