Was Wondering if anyone can tell me if these are the original flanges that came with this model. I seriously doubt it and was thinking of removing them. I don't have the legs. Openings for the legs are only about 1/4 inch wide. There are two on each flange. I do believe this model orinally had 4 flanges as opposed to 3, but not these particular one's. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

No they are definitely not the original sockets. It seems like that may be a legless model. I think that because the pro is a three legged steel when it has legs. Though I am not 100% on that.

I'd take them off and look!

This model definitely had three legs, but some were made without the leg sockets.

Thank you. I bet this was a legless model just looking at the bottom. I think i'll get rid of these flanges and either pick up some new legs, or use a keyboard stand.

Oliver, I could make you a really nice professional grade stand that you can play sitting or standing and you won't have to alter the steel. Check out my Deluxe 34 website!
