Avery, et al, I've only seen 2, but they were both _superb_ instruments. Out of the box better than most anything else. Depending on projected use, 1 - 2 days of serious prep, and a dynamite piano. Notable is that this instrument, along with the Yamaha CFIIIs, is coming to be the instrument of choice in several international piano competitions. My own approach has been to treat the two I have seen as I would a good Hamburg. More information, thoughts, etc. if you wish. Best, and good luck!
