Hi Newton, Possibly. The piano has been in the same basic spot for years, but it does get repositioned some. The CFIII, on the other hand, gets moved around constantly for the continual musical productions, and hasn't been a problem, nor is this a major deal anywhere else. Sure, I've tightened a billion screws (maybe a billion and six, I lost count somewhere between three and four million), but finding all the lid hinge screws stripped clear out, with half of them lying on the soundboard, is sort of unusual for me. Weirdness. Ron N
