Nice! Although it *would* look better with all those pix removed from its top. Cool room.

Looks to me that this one may not be a full keyboard? Looks narrow to me - but maybe its the setting....

I think you're right - it's a mini. | |||

Hmmm, says I'm forbidden. I wonder if it's a FireFox issue? | |||

That's totally weird (I use FireFox also), but I'm getting the forbidden message now also. But... Go to the original post, right click on the broken image icon, and select "view image". Works for any non-linkable image I've ever encountered...

That IS purdy... I always liked those old uprights that had the feature of tilting open the front board when the fallboard is opened - letting the sound get out! On many of the newer pianos, after I finish tuning and close everything up, it can sound a little stuffy after hearing the piano with the case all opened up.

I've seen this guy at most of the arts festivals in Seattle. I never thought the piano looked like a mini... but next time I see him, I'll count his octaves. He may have more than one. It does look narrow compared to the player. He frequently leaves the piano unattended at festivals. I've been tempted to sit down and bash out a few tunes, but haven't gotten up the nerve. There's no sign on it that says "don't play this piano." On the other hand, it's the guy's personal instrument. You wouldn't just pick up someone else's saxophone and start playing, now, would you? BTW, note the angle of the hill... this isn't even a very steep hill for Seattle. I hope he's got good brakes on those casters.
