<DIV>I service a half dozen or so of these and consider them mediocre at
best. Two of them are the most difficult pianos to tune of any in my
29 yrs. experience (OK, a Horugel takes top prize!). As Terry
mentioned, the name on the front is most certainly going to elevate the
price far beyond its musical returns, compared to other consoles.

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My sister-in-law is on the hunt for a used
piano and has asked me to look at a Steinway Console for her. It's
been a long, long time since I've serviced any of these and only
remember that I didn't like them. Besides difficulty in tuning is
there anything else I can say to persuade her to look
elsewhere?</FONT></DIV>
