Ebony. Dave was going to rebuild it for the Jazz Society in Springfield, IL, but they ran out of money before they even started the piano. Now the piano's been sold to someone in the Springfield area and the need for the short lid is up in the air. Dave doesn't know yet whether he is going to rebuild it ot not. He would like to do it, but without the short lid, he may not be able to sell the rebuilding to the new owner. Dave has a D going right now and doesn't have enough space to do 2 9 footers at the same time. He wants to be prepared! Thanks for the response!!
