Luck is with you my child!  Oooh, that felt good. <g>

I have devised a safe method of making honky tonk!


Get a thin magnetic strip, and put it on the strings.  Make sure the 
let-off isn´t too close and you have a horribly sounding piano.
One catch though. It won´t stick to the thickest of the bass 
strings.  Except of course if they´re iron wound, right?


Best regards,

P.S. You could always get a really strong electromagnet and put it behind 
the strings, making anything with metal stick to them.  Just make sure the 
pianist doesn´t have a pacemaker or an artificial hip...
