List,

   We also have an old K (#172883 - 1915) in a practice room. It's not
quite as bad as the one talked about below, but I was wondering, in light
of the comments about rebuilding that one, if I should consider keeping
this or not when we move into our new building? Believe me, there will
plenty of grands to rebuild, assuming we keep all our old stock.
   Opinions?
