    Reminds me of one of the funniest classifieds I've ever seen, "For =
Sale; Nine Foot Baby Grand, in good condition."  I thought, "If that's a =
baby, I'd hate to see the mother." =20

    Stephen, all pianos have single strings in the low bass; for one.=20

    I classify a baby grand as any grand smaller that 5'4".   That's 64 =
inches.=20

  Looks like I need to get my terms straight - I've called a piano as
  large as a Steinway D or a Bosendorfer Imperial (a piano on which the
  stringing scale requires single-string notes in the low bass) a baby
  grand!
