---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Well...again.. since I more or less agree about the cheap stickers point... and since that isnt what I am suggesting... I dont really see where you are going with this. I dont like cheap stickers either. That being said.. I've seen some very nice little brass logos installed on the side of the fall board by some dealers. I've seen some gawdy stuff too, but that doenst detract from the posibility to do it nicely. But ok... nuf is nuf. I think we all know where we stand on the matter anyways. Cheers RicB Farrell wrote: > Gotcha. Everyone has their own pet peeves. Stickers are one of mine. Before I got into this business the tuner who tuned my brand new 1098 tried to put his service record sticker on the inside lid of my little 1098. I nearly broke his arm. Turned out it wasn't much of a piano, but it sure did look nice. I would often just lift the lid to gander at all the shiny neat looking stuff inside (varnished pinblock top was just so cool) - I definitely did not want to see a sticker. > > Also those tacky brand-name decals that they put on the side of concert pianos. I know, I know, nothing wrong with it, but I simply think it is tacky. They remind me of the beat up Pontiac Firebirds, et. al., out there that have "FIREBIRD" in huge letters on the top of the front windshield. But of course, to each their own, and I guess when I have my own 9-footer in my own concert hall, I can insist on no tacky stickers. But of course, I do like the decal on the fallboard. Gee whizz, maybe I simply think they had it perfected in 1890 and don't think we should change a thing........ > > More than enough of this nonsense. > > Terry Farrell > -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
