  Hi John,
  The music hinge that is bolted to the music rack board and a screw passes through a hole fastening the music rack to the board. Most spinets from the 60s had this type of attachment. They are very weak and break the music rack where they are attached to the rounded tomb stone. Sort of like an upside down U with a screw through it.

    Joe, I am unfamiliar with the term, 'tombstone hinge', would you elaborate?
    Please and thank you.

      Hi,
       Any one know the sourse of replacement tombstone desk hinges that have the threaded eye in the tombstone hinge>
      I think the brand is Hazelton. Anyway a 3 year old piano with the screw stripped and lost with a replacement screw that is too short. So I assume we need the screw and hinge.

        Anybody out there have the little plastic turnbuckle used on the muffler rail-pedal connection in a Samick console?  I need 1 ASAP, and the supply houses don't seem to have those.  They strip out easily, the top and bottom have different diameters, and probably have metric threads.  HELP!
