Sevicing low end pianos (was clothing)

[Mark Story]

I would call the "La Petite" a zygote grand.

Hey, I tuned a La Petite by Kimball today - I guess it is not a baby
grand because it has a name?

Actually, I think it is a preemie! Yowzer, I think it was taller than it
was long! Worked well though, sounded kinda, er, a,
ssssmmmmaaaaalllllllllll!!!!!!

I think the generic terms like baby, parlour, concert grand are quite
independant of any particular manufacturer's model designation.
