There are a lot of them out there. It is a very common choice for a school piano and many other situations. I've been going nightly and will be again in a few minutes to rehearsals for Man of La Mancha. If I had the attitude you do about the piano we are using, I wouldn't be able to do either my job as a piano technician nor as a singer and actor. The last thing I would ever call our rehearsal hall piano is a "PSO". It is a Baldwin Hamilton Studio piano. It has great tone and a beautifully designed soundboard. Does it require actual work froloathfulm time to time to keep it being a musical instrument and not an object for loathsome disdain? Yes, but again, that's what I am in business to do.
