I have a customer with a brand new Young Chang PG 150. It has a nice big pressure ridge running the length of the sound board. From what I have read, this will eventually turn into a nice big crack since the wood is crushed in this area. I haven't officially taken a humidity reading, but the environment doesn't seem bad. The piano isn't sitting in the sun or between two heat vents. The temperature doesn't seem excessive one way or the other. Should this be grounds for replacement by the manufacturer? What are some of your opinions in this matter? David Porter St. Louis, MO
