Yamaha is my favorite. Hi, Jim. In my post I deliberately used the term spinet generically; you'll notice that I did not mention Baldwin by name, even though the poster did. In the rarefied world of the spinet piano, there were certainly many made that were a lot worse than Baldwin's offerings. I am not a fan of the spinet piano, however--any of them--and it's been a long time since I've tuned or serviced one. However, I have to agree with Jim Coleman--given a choice between tuning a Baldwin spinet, or an upright with a birdcage action, I'd choose the spinet. Birdcages are for the birds! Les Smith
