I am needing to order a set of D type grand action hammer shanks. I got this name from the pianotech archives. Other folks know this type of grand action as a simplex action.
Does anybody know where I can purchase a set?

I have looked at Renner, Abel, Baumgaertel, Pianotek Supply, Jahn and Schaff and none of them sell this type of hammer shank.

Help!

Thank you!

I would give 'Fletcher and Newman" in London UK a call or send an Email...
I'm sure you can find them on the web...

Hi Peter and Dan

Nope, Fletcher & Newman and Heckshers do not have the parts I am looking for either unfortunately.

I will google Herrburger & Brooks and see if anything comes up?

Cheers
