My friend J from Chicago did send a bit more info and here it is: Bruce, My quest continues for a three hole agraffe. I'm sorry I didn't include more info about the piano but here it is; Joseph Brodmann grand, model BG-187, #0001308 purchased (I am told) about a year ago. I left the part in the tuning pin area of the piano after I took measurements so I don't have a photo. The threads mic out at exactly .275" that is about 6.9 mm so I suspect it is not metric. I have contacted the company who has a very nice website and tries very hard to seem like a european entity but it seems pretty obvious that they are being made in China. The part has an arched top and a high polished finish like most agraffes in asian pianos. I'm sure I could improvise a repair but this piano is still under warranty and I would prefer not to take responsibility for that. I wonder if a japanese part might fit?
