Nonono - you misunderstand: i was talking to the guy (Rob?) who asked the original question. In other words, i was agreeing with you. ;)<br>I accidentally sent it to you since your name came up when i hit the "reply" button.<br>
(However, i was also making fun of you, since you had such a strong attitude. I knew you could take it though, what with your thick hide and all. In other words i was being sarcastic as well.) <br>So to sum up: i agree and disagree with both parties! <br>

What is that???? To assume that every piano of a specific Make/Model/Year<br>is exactly the same is just down-right STUPID! I'm sorry and I apologize<br>for being so sarcastic, but this is one of those subjects that really<br>
