That is why I asked the question. I am working up two proposals. One where get all new D's, B's and Boston studios, and trade in the pianos we have. The other is we rebuild almost all of our grands, buy new Boston grands where needed and trade in all the studios. My main concern are the 1970's B's and D's we have. I heard that pianos made in this period were not the greatest. Before I spend money rebuilding them, are they going to turn out all right? As one person said, perhaps getting new ones takes the "fear" factor out of it. No one will blame me if the piano didn't turn out right. On the other hand, it will save about $150,000. That's a lot of money these days. Our schools has the same problem as everyone else. Budgets are being cut. We just had a donor give us money for a new B. But I don't know if there is more money available in the near future. Thanks to all of you who replied. I am giving all of your comments (without your names) to the chair.
