Please send all replies directly to me at  <fish@gs.verio.net>    I am
not on the list right now.

This piano has a right-side (treble end) lever lift rod that is mounted
just to the right of the last damper lever (65?) rather than at the
upper end as usual.  This is the type of rod that is notched on the
other end to mate with the center pedal rod which is mounted on the left
and actuates the Bass levers.  Someone apparently removed the rod for
repair and forgot to return it.  I have, of course, contacted Wurlitzer
and was sent a rod set that turned out be a left-actuated.  So much for
communication!

Do any of you have any right-configured rods as spares? Any length will
do, although I would be delighted if someone had one of the short ones.
To avoid any further mis-understandings, the one I need can be
indentified thusly. Hold the rod with the lift hook in your right hand
and the notched end extending to your left.  The rod hangers and the
hook should both be sticking upward from the main length of the rod.

I will be glad to pay any reasonable amount plus freight for such a rod.

Many thanks in advance,
