Another Ronisch. This one seems to have a problem with its fallboard, but the wood sure is pretty!

Just what I've been looking for, a Greek piano:

Anyone know anything about it aside from it being fugly?

The best I've been able to find, they make, or made, nothing but ugly continentals. This one at least looks a bit better:

And that's just a BAD shade of pink, plus its an ugly continental! I'll pass, thanx!

But this beauty can be yours for only 9000 euro:

A pedal for every reason and every season...
