<HTML>Greetings All,             &nbs= p;   Today I came upon a Knabe, Mingonette piano.  Its only a= console piano, with a shortened upright action, (not a drop action) however= , it has a pedal lyre, with all the pedal rods, cheek blocks that come out, = and a key frame that slides out of its bed!  The thing is put together = like a grand!!  I could hardly believe it.             &nbs= p;    How could Knabe, after going to the trouble of "marryin= g" grand features to a console size piano, put plastic back checks, jacks(!)= and plastic damper levers(!) in the action?  The plastic parts are bre= aking. Are parts available for this piano? Julia Gottchall, Reading, PA </HTML>
