I can only share with you my experience in loaning a piano to a church for a test drive. For me the few times I did it was a deal killer. The problem is the more people you draw into the sales decision the harder it will be to close the sale. In churches, small ones particularly, everybody is an expert. And the loudest mouth will most certainly know very little about pianos, or is sure that they have to get xxx brand, or whatever. I hope it works out for you. But in the future I would heartily recommend just sticking to your music committee for a decision.

Can anyone supply me with a copyof an agreement they use or point me toward on one the web? And if you have words of wisdom related to such a deal, please share them! Annie Grieshop
