Dear Folks, A customer requested me to evaluate a 5'10" Boston grand, reportedly 2-3 years old, with a QRS Pianomation 2000C unit. Being sold by a store which sells mostly Chinese manufactured pianos and Japanese grey market pianos. Asking price $16,000, or $14,000 if they pull the player unit off. The potential buyer has no interest in the QRS unit -- they're getting a piano to upgrade from a very small well worn no name grand, to something their son isn't incredibly frustrated with (he's a good pianist). What is the wholesale/retail value of a QRS installation anyways? I went out, inspected it, looks & sounds good. Anybody out there who works on them have any comments -- quality, pricing? Also, my Pierce atlas isn't brand new -- anyone able to give the year of manufacture for this Boston GP 178 "II" # 132905? Patrick Draine
