Generally very modest pianos, commonly known for small grands. Light weight construction, thin rims, often have bridge cap splitting and separation problems. Notoriously nasal sound. Similar to some of the low-end small Wurlitzers. Generally considered junk by dealers who often toss "trade-ins" rather than flooring them. Worked on many of them, don't care if I see another.
