I once had a customer who had bought a "new" piano without a back... I couldn't believe it so I went and... (roll drum)... I found a piano without a back (no pinblock, plate or strings, action sitting on keys). The "sales person" had told the customer that she just had to find a piano tuner to get a new back for it.but it was such a nice cabinet... ;-) Marcel Carey Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2010 17:21:15 +0000 From: piano57 at comcast.net To: pianotech at ptg.org Subject: Re: [pianotech] All words and no action......

I'd like to get a used part that wouldn't be as expensive." "Well, that's not how pinblocks work....."
