I believe i sold my last one,but will take a look. These go for about $75-$80 now. They used to be $45-$50, but are getting scarce.

When mounted on the piano, I think the rack is so ugly that it spoils the coolness of the Wurly.  This has always made me cringe.  I can't imagine a brand new one sitting in the showroom looking remotely cool, even in the 1960's.  It just screams "oven rack" to me.


Most of the racks you see on ebay have broken feet... I mean they are broken off at the screw holes.  The one I have is broken this way, and impossible to mount.  I guess they get bent back and forth while loading in and out and bouncing around with drum gear in the back of the van.

Ugly? Maybe, but if you read music it's a triumph of function over fashion.

(Actually, I bought a really nice one from Steveo last year...)

I have never seen one with broken feet on ebay..they wouldnt be much help if broken....

Thanks for the compliment Alenhoff.

And yes, they remind me of an oven rack too.....

Any luck??

Maybe it would be easier to modify an oven rack to make
it work. You did say function was more important than looks.

I'm with you on finding an original though. It would simply
complete the piece.
