Title: Filco legs
Post by: rook on Wed, 26 September 2012, 13:14:13
Where can I get one or two legs for a Filco Majestouch keyboard for cheap. I tried to contact Diatec, but they referred me to a UK company. Cost including shipping would be about 20 USD here in the US.

You might also try NCIX...they are distributing Filco here in the US and Canada, though not sure if they can help out w/ spares.

$20 shipped for a part that's hard to find or not suppose to be sold is reasonable. You're not going to find something like this on ebay for a cents.

BTW welcome to GH

+1 - It may take a while but NCIX can ask Filco to ship extras. Back when Elite Keyboards was selling Filcos, he was able to get extra legs. Since I'm a good custer, he even sent me one for free once. I actually found the lost leg about a year after... So yes I have one extra but holding on it. :-)

I used to be an avid Filco fanboy...then my Filco's legs took arrows to their knees... ;)
