Hi Terry,
 That is exactly the model.
There are thrww screws that hold the center lid and once one opens all =
three lids two inside that hold another cover over the back of the keys.
Thanks for confirming my thoughts about the screws function on the cheek =
blocks. Taking these off will allow axcess for regulation, which this =
piano sorely needs.

  Hey Joe. Did it look a bit like the beauty pictured below? To open the =
sides, there are two screws below the keybed on both sides where the =
curved side piece meets the kneeboard (one a few inches below the keybed =
and the other maybe six inches above the floor). There might be a screw =
on the top part also that is accessible after the tops are opened - I =
don't remember as its been a few years. I had this one refinished for a =
lady - kinda nice because I didn't have to take the piano to the =
refinisher - just removed all the case pieces, threw them in the trunk =
of my car and dropped them off for refinishing! Definitely a way-cool =
cabinet.
