What would Steinway do

Hi Paul,  

I may have only discreetly rolled my eyes when I heard it.  In an effort to be well behaved, I didn't even mumble an "Oh, brother.."   :-)

I did, BTW, pick up a couple of helpful tips--so all was not lost (as sometimes is).

  So by the same line of reasoning, only a '57 Chevy rebuilt at the GM ("Authorized") rebuilding facility is an "authentically restored" '57 Chevy, right? 

  It's kinda like the RPT vs non-RPT argument. Just because someone/something is "authorized" or "certificated" doesn't mean that everyone/everything else is unqualified... and from what I see and hear, the factory/dealer doesn't necessarily do a fabulous job, either.

      >Rebuild customer wants to make sure that his O ends up "authentically restored"


      Then that, by definition, would have to restored at the S&S rebuilding facility.
      Anything short of that will be a pale facsimile.
