<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi Lawrence,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Sherman Clay Pianos in Seattle has (or
had) an "in-house" tech who mainly did cabinet refinishing and
poly touch up. His name is Angel Orozco who is from Mexico City.
I don't have SC's number, but I'm sure it's on the internet. They
are the sole supplier of Steinway in Washington. He might know some
good techs and the piano scene down there.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Good luck.</font>

<br><font size=4 face="Baskerville Old Face"><b>I have a customer who is
moving to Mexico, near Mexico City. She is thinking of buying the
piano which is on loan to her and moving it down there. It is a 1969
Yamaha G2. I don’t know anything about the price or availability
of used pianos there, or the state of piano technology. Anyone know
about the piano scene in Mexico, and/or have an opinion as to whether it
is worth shipping this piano there? Thanks for any help.</b></font>
