(#91577 - 2002) that I bought in Jan of 2004 which was supposed to be =
my
personal instrument for practice and recording. I have not been

deal of
time and money having work done on it, including new NY Steinway D =

which did not help. I now wish to sell the piano, as quickly as =
possible
(love/hate relationship with it – and the ‘hate’ has won =
out). I thought
maybe someone on the list may be interested for themselves or for a
client. The piano came ‘Stanwoodized’, but with an EXTREMELY =
heavy
action that has been ‘tweaked’, but needs much attention. I =
think there
is a truly great piano in there someplace, but it needs the eyes, ears =
and
hands of a far more skilled technician than me to achieve
that.</SPAN></FONT></P>
