<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm looking for some help =
on appraising
a " Kawai AT-170 " </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is a 47" studio upright with =
the "Anytime"
features. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As an acoustic piano it functions =
normally, plays
well and sounds</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>very nice.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT><FONT face=Arial =
size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The "Anytime" part is a lever that =
engages a stop
rail preventing </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the hammers from reaching the strings =
thereby
making the piano</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>silent acoustically. =
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT><FONT face=Arial =
size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In both =
modes, speaking and silent,
the piano transmits MIDI </FONT><FONT face=Arial =
size=2>DATA</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>making it a quite good MIDI =
Controller. An
electronic module is included </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>and has a few <FONT face=Arial =
size=2>digital
keyboard voices. (piano, elec piano, harpsi, etc.)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> MIDI DATA received </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>only =
plays the
electronic voices.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The piano is about 5 years old and is =
in brand new
condition.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have no idea about it's market =
value, so
a</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>ny advice would be greatly
appreciated.</FONT></DIV>
