Currently they are trying to raise money for a new instrument, and they are targeting the worst looking instrument to replace. Other than the looks it's really OK. What criterion do you use for the rebuild/trade decision? >> Greetings, At Vanderbilt, we just add to what we have, there are never enough. With a new model L going for $42,000, it should be easy to justify spending $8,000 on a new factory board in an old L, and another $8,000 on the action by yourself. This leaves the school with a new piano and $26,000. Regards, Ed Foote RPT
