Happy holidays to all, I was able to score 7 wippens (complete with broken springstrings (sorry boss!-)) from a local rebuilder. I think I wipe(n)d him out (I needed 8 for a friend who found a K&B Acoustigrand sans top & legs on the curb). Say, there's a thought! Do scouting expeditions on large article GCD's (Garbage Collection Days), You might find a K&B grand as a refusee (I found a Knabe grand like that, once. I also know of a Mehlin grand and a Krakauer grand found in similar straits (or is it curbs?) and rehabed. But then again, I live in Brooklyn, NY. Good luck Gabriel
