Help! Yamaha Bis Key

[SaxDon]

My Bis key pearl fell of my Yamaha 82Z soprano during a gig and could not be found. Any ideas how I go about getting a replacement?

Thanks!

Phone Dawkes, see If they have one.
I believe this is the correct one, 2 in stock, so maybe just order online (measure first).

Would you prefer a convex one I wonder?

Is it just the pearl that's fallen out or has the solder failed and the actual key (pearl holder) has become detached from the key cup?

If the later - probably best contacting Yamaha ad seeing if they would be prepared to supply an new key under warranty.

If just the pearl then as above Dawkes can probably supply you a new one

Thanks gents. It’s just the pearl that fell out.
