Sorry; I saw the word "console" and glossed over the "U1," which is usually considered a studio upright. So I was thinking of console-type ornate music racks that are fastened to the music desk.
But I would think you could order the type of music rest that fastens to a fallboard from Yamaha or Kawai. However, you'd most likely have to settle for one of their finishes. I doubt they have unfinished ones available.
I don't know a source of any generic ones.
The only other thing I can think of is to buy some sort of fluted molding, cut it to length, round the corners, etc. But you'd still have to stain and lacquer it.

Subject: Music Desk boards
Does anyone have a source for replacing those little music fall board
desk stand boards on many console pianos such as the Yamaha U1 etc.
They are about 24" by 3", some longer. They get broken and lost at some
of the schools I service. I've looked in the supply catalogs that I
have, but can't find them there. In the past, I've fabricated them, but
am tired of the measuring, sawing, sanding, gluing, painting etc. I'm
just looking for a generic, not factory replacement from Indonesia,
wherever. Anyone make 'em?
