Hi Mike,
=20
I agree, it seems good to encourage people to explore all the options, =
including other pianos that they may be able to afford now or later.  I =
also imagined maybe sometimes improving in creative ways on how the =
piano came out of the factory.

Best regards & happy holidays,

Trent

the

	I agree.  Our assignment, if we choose to accept it, is to help each =
piano
	we encounter to realize its potential.  If an Aeolian-era M&H hasn't =
been
	regulated or voiced since it's creation 30 years ago, it for sure has
	unrealized potential.  The improvement was dramatic, and the customer =
was
	grateful.  Of course, this does not alter the fact that many other =
pianos
	might please her more than  that particular instrument.
