[CAUT] SAMA

[Jeff Tanner]

A local dealer here and a tech friend of mine sent a Baldwin grand down 
there a couple years or so ago.  He was very happy with the results.  He did 
the action work himself (I didn't think SAMA did action work at all).  I saw 
the piano, but didn't go over it with a fine tooth comb.  Finish, stringing 
and plate refinishing looked very nice, especially for the price.

But I have heard from others that they've had concerns over how long the 
work took to complete and how difficult it could be to communicate with 
someone at SAMA during the process.  When they've got your piano down there 
for months at the time and you can't talk to anyone to find out the status, 
that can make one nervous.
