A harpsichord owner not on the listserv has written to me inquiring about
"replacement plectra for a John Morley Harpsichord. It was converted from leather plectra to Delrin and came with a spare package of delrin plectra that have square back that fits into the large hole without a wooden shim to keep a normal plectra in place. I was wondering if you knew where I could purchase more of these plectra. "
I had him send a photo and sure enough, the back end of the plectra was cubical and clearly designed to fit the square left behind by leather plectra, with the normal flat plectra extending forward from the cubical section.
I'm curious to know if anybody has encountered these and knows where to get them?
