European durability

Ric,

 Thanks for your input. We are located in Ohio. We have a humidity
swings from 25% through 65%.  Privately I have worked on many Bechsteins
and fined that they are extremely sensitize to humidity swings, I don't
mean this in a negative sense, just an observation. We do have  A
Bechstein "A" and a Schultze-Pollman 6' here on campus.  The Pollman is
now where near as sensitize to climatic changes as the Bechstein, even
though both are equipped with Piano Life Saver Systems.
 
 Ric, Thank you for serving in the Navy, I do appreciate your part in
allowing me to live freely in the United States.

Regards,
