---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Terry Judging from the mostly positive responses, No flame suit is required & certainly for the truthful opinions expressed here. Thanks to all the great feedback on this thread. I believe the answer to my original question is yes Some are doing this & yes perhaps & trend is/or will continue to develop. Best to all Dale I was just funnin' about the Mexico thing. I know he does the work in-house. I have do disagree with you regarding the sound potential of the old uprights. You suggested, "when properly rebuilt" that they have the potential to "give a lot better sound than most of the bottom of the line grands you can find on the market these days (Korean, Chinese etc.)." This is simply not true by matter of omission, IMHO. I believe they have the potential to give a way, way, superior sound than most of the bottom-level grands and mid-level smaller grands and upper-level micro-grands (five-foot-ish) you can find on the market these days. I'd lend you my flame suit, but I just may need it!
