Duaine,

I make a lot of money on low-end stuff, too. But that doesn't prevent me
from calling it what it is.

My day was a crappy Kimball fetal grand, crappy Currier spinet, and crappy
Wurlitzer console. Yes, I said "crappy." And, yes, it pays the bills. But,
oh, me achin' ears!

My last Betsy Ross spinet died, thankfully. They replaced it with a Kawai
RX-2. Hardly noticed the difference in tone - just kidding. <G>

Lightheartedly,

John Formsma

    Bottom line: They are one of many cheap little spinets made back in the
40s, 50s and 60s. They were built better than some, but still not any kind
of a real musical instrument.

  There the list goes again - "not any kind of a real musical instrument" -
bashing about 90% of my businesses income. Yes, they are cheap. Yes, they
are on the low end of the spectrum. NO, they are not toys. NO, they are not
KIDS TOY pianos. NO, they are not Steinway or Chickering. YES, they are REAL
instruments. SO, that last sentence was not called for.

  Taking offense,
