Seek Part for Vocalion XY Orchestrelle
By William Zucca

I am looking for a replacement keyboard stanchion (left only) for my
Vocalion XY Orchestrelle.  Mine was seriously damaged by a loose bungee
hook when I moved it to my house several months ago.

Speaking of my house, the Orchestrelle will not fit through my
front door (the keyboard section makes it too wide), and ever since
it arrived it has resided on my front porch.  It is well-padded and
wrapped and I had removed all the trim panels and crown before the
move so they are separately wrapped and stored in my barn.

I have a contractor lined up, and on some sunny weekend this spring
he will be removing the door and all the door trim, inside and out,
so I can gain the necessary three inches to allow its entry into the
foyer and then into the parlor under the Victorian spandrel that
separates the two rooms.  Wish me luck with this project.

In the meantime, if anyone knows where there might be a spare, left
keyboard stanchion available for my beautiful machine, please contact
me.  A photo is attached.

Best regards,
