Hi :-)

You have to cut the sustain dovel down to lenghts of that of a stage piano, then insert this guide cup:

Now you can use the normal stage pedal...


A hotfix will be to drill a hole to the bottom of the dovel to fit the size of the pushrod.

The asking price is only $5? How durable is this part?

Thank you so much for sharing your opinion on digital pianos. I am very surprised that you gave such a detailed and useful answer.

I choose a digital piano, my budget is 1000 dollars. What can you advise within my budget. I found a review with suitable digital piano models, check. I liked the Kawai ES100 Digital Piano. What can you say about it?

Any Rhodes sightings in the movie?  Elton playing one while recording "Daniel", perhaps?
Probably not...

The other night I watched "Bad Times at the El Royale" and spotted a very interesting Seventy-Three Suitcase in the background of a scene in a recording studio.  I tried doing some freeze-frame analysis, but it was difficult to get a frame that had clear focus.  It looked like one of the Sparkle Top era pianos with a black harp cover.  I have one from '69, however, it almost looked like one of the really early ones that had tubular legs (64/65?), rather than the flat aluminum supports. The film is set in '69 or so, but it's hard to believe someone would have gotten that specific with the piano

My grandmother has such a suitcase in the attic.
