The owner = told me it has the "insides made by Bosendorfer and the outside made by = someone else." The veneer work is exquisite! The top is done in = quartersawn rosewood in a sunburst pattern of at least 3 dozen matched = pieces. The rim is done in fans of matched rosewood framed and repeated. = She had it "rebuilt" by someone she could finally afford "for about = $800.00." Sad. I don't have all the details, but I feel badly for the = client. The "refinishing" does not do justice to the beautiful and = talented work of the case maker. The "insides" were not replaced, just = cleaned with very little regulating, no voicing-oversize pins and new = strings. I know I'm off on a tangent here. I'm sorry. It's maddening to = see what people can be told by "technicians" with a silver tongue. = Anyway. Does anyone have or had any experience and background on this = piano? I didn't have time to explore the "insides" but I'm sure I'll see = it again. Thanks. Paul Chick RPT ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
