CHEUNG TITLE: STOOL AND AUXILIARY PEDAL FOR A KEYBOARD INSTRUMENT A stool, for use with a keyboard instrument including at least one foot pedal, has a platform and an auxiliary pedal pivotally mounted to the platform. An actuating mechanism is connected to the foot pedal, and is adapted to contact and actuate the main, foot pedal of a keyboard instrument. A number of support legs extend down from the platform. A roller and roller guide assembly is provided, to enable the action of the auxiliary pedal to be transferred smoothly to the main piano pedal. One of the roller and the roller guide are connected to the actuating mechanism, whilst the other of the roller and the roller guide is mounted on the main pedal. To enable the height of the legs to be adjusted, each leg can comprise a main member, and two extension members.
