Run away from a Yamaha spinet? I have serviced one Yamy spinet for some years now. I would put it will into the 90+ percentile of desirable pianos to service. Sure, it's small, but at least it is a real piano - that's quite a bit more than I can say for the majority of pianos I service.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial>IMHO, the Yamy spinet is small, but otherwise a lovely little piano.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial>Terry Farrell</FONT></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black"><B>From:</B> <A title=atuneforyou@earthlink.net href="mailto:atuneforyou@earthlink.net">Steve Blasyak</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"> </DIV> <DIV> <DIV>Run!!!!!

I have not seen this type of fallboard before. Also, in the event of removing the action with all the stickers, does the top grommet just pop out of the end of the key, or do I have to unscrew each sticker?  Perhaps a Yamaha service/parts manual would be good?</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks, Robin</FONT> </DIV></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
