Replacement Casters

[Roger Jolly]

Hi John,
            I wonder if Yamaha has any of the older  composite type casters
that was used on the P2's.
I've never encountered a damaged set.   Nor have I had a tech request a
set.  Call Ron.G.
We must have 100's of them in schools, churches, bars and hotels,and
colleges.  
Since the P22 is made in the US, they use the standard Darnell caster sets.
So make sure you ask for Japanese made casters.  The material is a lot
harder than the rubber, and the shaft and bearings are superior.
Lang may ye lum reek.  It's a wee bitty cald here.
Roger
