RV>I've always wanted to get the official MANUFACTURER position on this issue. RV>understand that the movers do it because it saves time and effort on their RV>part--as long as the lyre holds. But we're generally the ones who end up RV>having to repair the lyre. And sometimes the keybed as well. RV>Responses, anyone? RV>Robert V. Carr RPT RV>DeLand FL I once got into a "discussion" with a dealer about whether the lyre should be on or off to set up and take down . We made a bet. I then called Steinway and talked with Michael Mohr. He said it was fine to leave the lyre on. Then I called and talked with Steinway's factory head and he said always remove the lyre. So there you have the Steinway official position..... Bill Stratton --- ~ SLMR 2.1a ~
