Back from Tahoe. Blue water & sky No worries
I actually I find your carcass comment to be right on in CA. If were
talking Steinway M's or L it's hard to find a beater M out here for less than 6 to
8K.( Ls 8 to 10 k) ( A's10 to 12 k) & (B s10 14k )(Cs & Ds up to 15k or
more.) I think the brothers back east have more slection & thus lower prices
since we're so far from the mother ship.( The factory) Know what I mean?
Your rebuilding prices are right inside the ball park for first rate custom
work with rebuilders shore to shore , sometimes less sometimes more.

Hello my friend...well, lookee here: if you can sell me Steinways ready to
be completely restored for $4-6K, iI'll buy 'em all day. But perhaps we're
having "a semantic difference; " I call a SHELL any piano that needs most of
the major stuff; your "L" I would call a "Shell Plus." <g>
I bet the weather in California right now is better then TIN-i-see,
bubba....
