And then there is MDF. But doesn't that sag over time? And boy, it sure =
is heavy.

How did you get the whole core assembly flat?

    Just curious. I have a  lid to build also, and am
    really interested in learning what everyone knows
    about this.
  I chose poplar simply because it is what I have found in every lid in =
which I have seen the core.  Also its weight to strength ratio is very =
good.  This is an 8' piano and weight does become an issue. Solid wood =
is stiffer than ply wood which is another reason I chose not to use ply =
wood.
