[CAUT] uprights

[Porritt, David]

I only do one (4 year old) K52 for a teacher and it is substandard to my
ear.  One day right after I tuned it I returned to the school and tuned
a 243HP that was far nicer.  The tenor is really weak, and the killer
octave really killer.  For that kind of money they should be wonderful
instruments and they just aren't.

List,

 

My school is interested in a large purchase of pianos...10 or more.
They are talking with Steinway.   The Boston would be included in the
upright part of the purchase or the K52.   Opinions on the bigger Boston
uprights and the K52.   Obviously, you can probably get 2 Bostons for
the K52, but is the K52 a decent piano these days?
