This may look like an silly topic, but i cannot find a place to buy the rubber feet i'm missing. I mean those from the front legs, not those with a screw (like those from the pedal).

Here's a picture of what it should look like:


Does anyone know where to find them? I've searched on majorkey and the other pages mentioned on this side, but without succes.

Thanks in advance.

Vintage Vibe has some that they sell.  They're OK, definitely not original.  They're more plastic than rubber.  A touch harder and shinier than the original ones.  Paul

CAE Sound has them. Part 018754. They also have the back feet.

Thanks for your replies. Does anyone know a place in Europe where they will have them (to lower the postage costs)?

I've also emailed EP-service in Holland but they're on vacation  :P . However, i will wait for them to email me back.

Didn't even know that these things were original.
My '76 Mk 1 has got those metal buttons you click into the leg. Are these caps supposed to go over them ?

That is exactly what I asked myself after I bought the Rhodes.

It might be that in some production years those caps weren't even added to the legs. But in that case they will scratch on wooden floors...

So after I saw this picture I thought my Rhodes would have lost them somewhere in the past..

my caps were original when i bought my rhodes. they were attached over the frontleg button. unfortunaly the plastic was too soft for the rhodes' weight and broke after several gigs. maybe that's why nearly all pianos are capless. i actually never saw another  one but mine with the rubber feet :) btw the new table soccer caps seem to be quite durable. other solutions are finishing caps of water pipes. they are even measured in inches. or rubber feet for furnitures from diy megastores.
