Most of what you read about pianos is hype. But I've found Bush and Lane pianos to be well above average.

It is doubtful whether the sympathetic tone possessed by the smallest of the Bush & Lane Grands has been surpassed in any other grand of its size. The wonderful power and charming sweetness of tone of the entire line of Bush & Lane grands has been enthusiastically acclaimed by all musicians who have played them." from the Bluebook of Pianos, and on sellers claim that "Most piano technicians perk up when you mention the name "Bush & Lane"! Considered equal or superior to Steinway pianos from the same period, this company has been somewhat forgotten except by those "in the know"". I'm going to look at a 6' Bush and Lane shortly, is this sales pitch I cited in the ballpark, or just hype? Thanks, Matt
