Y'all just jealous. Just ask Cindy and Mary Anna. Playing the Grand is so rapturous, they each wanted to smoke a cigarette afterward.

I'm amazed. Rachmananoff would never sound better on that instrument!

She is a beaut, isn't she?

Luckily for you, Rich, I'm running an equal-trade special. For only the cost of transporting pianos, you could have this limited edition Grand spinet by trading your Mason Hamlin or Grotrian. Either one would probably work for me.

Mark, I see you're protecting your treasure by having that Dampp-Chaser in it.

[edit] It would seem I killed PA's thread at PW.

That's not a Dampp-Chaser. It's a support rod to keep the piano from caving in.

Nah, I know better. It may be a vintage model, but it's definitely a D-C.

I completely understand the desire to protect that plywood soundboard....
