I am in need of some professional information=
that some of you can supply and I would be grateful if you will share. =
; I really need to know how much time I should budget to do a dealer prep on=
a new piano. NOT PRICES, JUST TIME.<BR>
Now before I get any irate answers about different =
pianos requiring different times, I understand all that. These particu=
lar pianos are Chinese and I understand they will require more time than a Y=
amaha. (At least I've been told that.)<BR>
What I crave is like, what would be your best guess=
as to how much time would be required to do a dealer prep on an <B>average =
</B>piano, in <B>average</B> condition, for an <B>average</B> dealer. =
I know a lot of assumptions will have to be made and I apologize for being s=
o vague but I have not done a dealer prep and am not sure what all you need =
to do. I am assuming you check all tolerances like blow, dip, letoff, =
etc. and adjust to spec.<BR>
Thanks a bunch,<BR>
