<DIV><BR></DIV>Jim,
<DIV>I haven't tried anything myself, but I want to say I've seen a cle=
ar acrylic corner guard on a piano. Seems like it may be on a Sch=
immel studio model I tune here in town that was originally bought in Eu=
rope. I think she's told me it's a popular model in schools over =
there.</DIV>
