<BR>You might be able to talk a dealer into selling you a Kawai RX-3 for tha=
t price, though the list price is considerably higher. I think it is a=
round 6' 4". They are very solid instruments with a good tone, and the=
y tune well.

<BR> There is a small church here seeking to buy a n=
ew
<BR>grand piano for the sanctuary.
<BR> The sanctuary will be well insulated and "clima=
te
<BR>controlled", but probably not at 42%,70 degrees F.
<BR>year 'round. ( A range of 60 to 80 degrees F. is much
<BR>more likely, down here in Georgia. ) And a complete
<BR>Dampp Chaser system with the bottom cover will be
<BR>added, I presume.
<BR> The maximum size limit is 6'6". The budgetary
<BR>limit is $20,000.
<BR> So I humbly beseech of you all to kindly offer
<BR>your advice on this matter. I will pass the e-mails on
<BR>to the purchasing committee.
