I just took a set of keys out of a Yamaha P-22 to rebush. Unfortunately the door to the school locked behind me as I went out.

Does anyone know what size pins Yamaha uses so I can bush these at my shop before the custodian gets back?

Yamaha Tech Support just keeps going to vioce mail.

The front guide pins are .125 and the balance rail pins are .137, if I remember correctly.


Stay tuned.

You're welcome. FYI, you can go to Bill Spurlock's website and get lots of information about his cauls, including the pin sizes for many pianos.
