I think oxygen is the lack. I have a couple old pinbock for sale......wish I told Tim to hang on to that soundboard they sawed out of my Steinway A....!! :>) Dude! All it needs is a new action!!! Easy fix, right? I agree sort of with you, Ron with alternate opinions: It was Great grandma's wedding present first, then an instrument for a couple years, then furniture, then cost, then just a huge, heavy box to move at moving time!
