Hi Bruce, One thing that just came to mind is that you might insert a rubber grommet in the hole at the bottom of the lyre. This would act as a spring so you would have support and maybe would prevent the top part from buzzing. I don't like the glue solution since it might interfere with future adjustments of the braces. Marcel Carey, RPT Sherbrooke, QC I cannot say that I have great confidence in this being a long lasting repair. On this instrument, I do not want to replace the supports with traditional lyre sticks. It is on a raised stage in a small theatre and I do not want to drill into the poly finish. The pedal lyre is at face level for the audience and anything I do down there will be quite visible. I may epoxy that hinge joint so it cannot move. Is there any reason it needs to be hinged aside from factory production ease? What has worked for you?
