Seek Cloth "D"-ring Tabs for Music Rolls
By Dave Saul

Hello everyone,  We have recently become aware that problems can
develop with the now widely used plastic music roll tabs of the
"D"-ring type.  Precision Music Rolls began using the plastic ones
several years ago after our supplier reported that suitable
adhesive-backed cloth was no longer being manufactured.

I would like to pose two questions to MMD readers:

1.  Has anyone else experienced problems with the "D"-ring type of
plastic tabs?  We have been playing them for years on our Ampico B
and have never had a problem.

2.  Does anyone know of a source for production quantities (i.e.,
a thousand or more at a time) of adhesive-backed cloth "D" ring roll
tabs?  These would preferably be black cloth similar to those found
on original Ampico rolls.
