Our piano teacher came over to check out our Steinway “A” in mid-December for the first time – she thought it had great sound and was very pleased. Apparently she usually “approves” a piano before her students purchase one…I didn’t realize she got so involved… Also, I had the piano tuned yesterday for the first time (our teacher asked us to wait for several weeks before tuning) and the tuner said you did a really nice job rebuilding the piano – thought I’d pass that feedback on. He’s been in the business for years and knows a lot about Steinways. He tunes for our teacher and the majority of her students – all of whom seem to own Steinways. (But none as nice as mine, of course J).
