Ray, I tuned a brand new one this week that I liked (model K - I wouldn't even consider a 1098). It had a Renner action that needed some regulating (no more tubular action rails), the tuning is tricky as it always has been, good tone quality and a very responsive action. Pricey but if cost is no object, you might suggest Bøsendorfer or Bechstein verticals. Tom Cole > "Ray T.
