<div>I used the Jansen action dolly for many years. Thought another, similar device would be redundant, but a colleague convinced me to buy <SPAN class=correction id="">Laroy's</SPAN>. I haven't used the Jansen since (although we might, if someone who can't lift an action is working at a grand while the Edwards dolly is in use elsewhere).</div>

<div class=AOLPlainTextBody id=AOLMsgPart_0_5262b127-47e6-4aa3-83a6-1cee690a5b8d>Does anyone know how much this action dolly from Jansen is? I can't find the price. <br>
Weighs <SPAN class=correction id="">app</SPAN>. 23 lbs. <br>

<br>
<SPAN class=correction id="">Laroy's</SPAN> is $349.00 but it has bedding screws to be able to duplicate the <SPAN class=correction id="">keydip</SPAN> <br>
while out of the piano and even has a string height target <SPAN class=correction id="">thingee</SPAN>. Weighs <SPAN class=correction id="">app</SPAN>. 18 lbs. <br>

<br>
Except for the things mentioned above, both seem to be similar as far as design is concerned. <br>
<br>
I'm thinking about getting one or the other. I'm getting old! :-) So far, the Edwards looks <br>
better because of the bedding screws and string height "target". <br>
<br>
Anyone tried both of them? Thanks. <br>
