A keyboard instrument (e.g., an electronic piano) has a keyboard including
numerous actions interlocked with numerous keys arranged on a keybed, and
at least one pedal (e.g., damper pedal) arranged on a base board of a
housing thereof, wherein it is equipped with a pedal link mechanism
including a pedal lever. A keybed reinforcing member is attached to the
lower surface of the keybed and is arranged to pivotally support the
pedal lever thereunder, wherein a plurality of tapered spacers are put
into the space between the keybed and the keybed reinforcing member,
which are thus integrally fixed together using screws. One end of the
pedal lever is interconnected with the pedal via a hanging bolt, and the
other end is interconnected with a vertical link interlocked with at
least one action.
