Hi Everyone,
Today I went to tune a piaon at a church for an outside venue who was goingto use this piano later today.  Befoe I could get my overcoat off and tool box situated, the music director lifted that lid.  Man I was glad the hinges were in place.  
 
A while back I tuned a piano in a hotel where the hinges were gone.  I'm glad I checked because it was a Kawai grand, cannot recall the model but it was huge and in disrepair.  I might have written about this last February roughly.  It's not fun carrying a lid that big and setting up so it won't fall on someone or something.  
 
In schools I've found lids on the Everette and Wurlitzer studios to be in rough shape, bent hinges missing hinges where the custodian screwed down the lid.  So I agree as they taught us at the school, always check that lid.
