When we had a music store here, I took a Yamaha CVP-55 digital piano and an old good-for-nothing Story&Clark 4'6" grand an merged the two. I have a wood shop where I not only do my piano work, but custom design & build stereo speaker systems. I cut everything out of the grand and fitting the Clav in the grand case, installed a Hafler 120 watt amp, 1-12" dual voice coil woofer, 2-6" mids, and 4-1" tweeters. This thing really was neat. It sold within 2 weeks of putting it up for sale ($8995.00).

They bought a new Clavinova, removed it from its case and fitted it in the front of the Kimball carcass. The speakers were placed back where the soundboard used to be. Believe it or not this replaced a Steinway S with loose pins to avoid rebuilding it.
