List, Can some of the serious rebuilders on the list give me some reasons to condemn a piano that's been in a flood? Besides the obvious, of course. The water was within 1/8" of the soundboard, so new keys, all new action, new damper underlevers, new pedal system, glue joints on the legs and veneer coming unglued on the legs and pedal lyre, corrosion on the strings (especially the bass strings) ,etc. I've got to write a letter for the customers to give to their insurance agent and I'd appreciate any more information than the above to help them get a new piano. As if that isn't enough. :-) The second piano I was called about, the water was over the soundboard! I need letters for both of them. Anyone have letters in their database to insurance agents that they've already been successful with for flood damage? Thanks. Avery
