Whos sells the black rubber gasket for Yamaha P-32D in California or the USA? Mine fell to pieces when I opened my 20 year old P-32D. It has a great action and tone but is unplayable without the gasket. I am about to start tuning it, it’s very sharp.

Try this Yamaha USA parts number: 888-892-6242 (option #1). They have been a source for replacement P-32D reed plates. I don’t know whether they would have gaskets. There’s a delivery charge, but that can be avoided if a local authorized Yamaha musical instruments dealer will order for you.

Alternatively, you can create your own gasket. I just ordered the following, which would probably work:

It would have to be cut into 1/8″ strips and glued at the joint(s). If you are still in need of a gasket after I get it, I’ll be happy to send you some of this.
