Yamaha YPT 400 Music Rest
by: Alfred

Dear Joan: You might try contacting the Yamaha Parts Department, last known numbers at (714) 522-9011 or (888) 892-6242 to place an order over the phone via credit card. The telephone lines are open from 8AM to 5PM PST Monday through Friday. If purchasing a part, they accept Visa, MasterCard, or American Express. Be sure to have the Model number of your unit available so that they can provide you with accurate information as quickly as possible.

OR you might consider the following

Music Stands generally are supplied in two styles, Plastic Panel or Rod. When they are not readily available from manufacturers, you might consider making a simple one yourself from 3/16? diameter Iron or Copper Rod, or have a local workshop custom make one.

Most Keyboards have either two support Slots or two support Holes into which the Stand fits. The 3/16? diameter of this proposed Stand should fit into either type of Keyboard support aperture.

The Rod used should be approximately 29? long, including a 14? Top and two 71/2? Arms. (71/2? from each end of the Rod make bends to form a straight-topped ?U?).

About 1? from the Rod ends, bend them backwards about 30 degrees in the same direction. This will eventually produce the incline for the Sheet Music. As an option, a 2? wooden Ledge can be epoxied to the front at the point just above the bends.

Before rushing into ?production? visualize, read and clearly understand these instructions.

Please submit a follow-up message in this Forum telling us what your decision is. Other members will benefit from your info. Thanks and good luck.
