            I don't know if being a Baldwin dealer makes any difference,
but I've ordered parts from Mr. Malone via email.  He has supplied the
parts for current models.  I don't know if he stocks the older Wurlitzer
parts.  I think these older Wurli parts are actually Young Chang.  It
may be that these brackets were the ones that "grow" with time.  I'd
check with Young Chang to find out.

            As far as the Baldwin snafu, I feel your pain.  $1.5K is a
chunk of change.  Sorry to hear about this.

            Best,

            Paul McCloud

Paul, 

As far as I know, it would be a waste of time. That was one the "things"
when 
they bought Baldwin, that they were only buying their assets. NOT their
liabilities! What a CROCK! JMHO! 

Besides, no one I've heard mention it on the list has ever gotten a
response
for him or anyone else! :-( 

Avery 

P.S, Of course, I lost over $1500.00 when all that happened! 
No, I'm not bitter. Not at all!

You can email Thomas Malone at Baldwin (they make the current
Wurlitzer): Thomas.malone@gibson.com .  I don't know if they still have
the parts you need.

I worked on Wurlitzer grand yesterday that the hammer line had fallen to
the point of losing about a 3rd of the key travel. When I pulled the
stack off to do a course adjust of the capstans(2 1/2 turns each) one of
the brackets fell to pieces on the keys. Both it and the other interior
bracket seem to have been epoxied together by a preceding tech. I need
to find replacements for these(no I'm not going to try and do a better
job of gluing). Does anyone know who would have made this piano probably
in the late 80's to early 90's. My guess is Samick but I thought that I
would check with you guys before proceeding.
thanks for any help in advance
