I don't think that I have ever found a part belonging to a "grey market" piano that Yamaha did not produce a replacement part for, action wise. Producing it and selling it to us are two different policy matters though, and Yamaha has taken the position of not supplying "grey market" piano parts...that is their perogative. With several other sources of supply for these thingees though, obtaining parts for 'any' Yamaha has never been a problem. Jim Bryant (FL)
