Let me know what you think. Thanks much. Steve Kabat <A HREF="mailto:s.kabat@csuohio.edu"> > s.kabat@csuohio.edu</A> > I think when it comes to any piano, the old adage is going to come into play. You get what you pay for. Any of the above mentioned pianos are going to serve your needs. It will be an individual taste as to tone and touch. If there are going to be used in practice rooms, I don't think it's going to make a lot of difference. If they're going to be used in studios, then consider individual taste. But that can change in a couple of years. One piano you didn't mention is the Petrof. Give it a try. The quality is similar to the others, even the Schimmel, but not as expensive.
