    Pianotek is gone and Schaff doesn't stock Delignit any more. Is anyone aware of where or how to get Delignit? Is the German manufacturer still making it? Thanks.

    Delignit pinblocks are still available on the website (listed as Delignit Beech Pinblocks). Have you spoken with them directly about this? That would be a shame if they stopped carrying them…

    Yes, I have tried to order a Delignit block from Schaff and I have spoken directly on the phone with them. They are out of stock and they indicated they were unlikely to carry Delignit blocks in the future. He indicated that they have communicated with the manufacturer in Germany, but he did not sound optimistic. Indeed, it would be a shame. I routinely cap my maple multilam blocks with about 8mm of Delignit.

    Thanks Melanie. I did call them and they reportedly do not.
