I don't know of any other piano that needs an Allen. > Wim Years back, I got a call on one of these. Someone had muscled the lid up, ripping out the pins, and leaving the lid bobbing on the brackets like a Pep Boys bobblehead. I thought it was sort of cute, but they insisted it be fixed, so I took the opportunity to install actual hinges, and retire the Allen bolts and brackets. Otherwise, I just use the screwdriver blade. What you need in Allen wrenches is contingent on what you do, just like anything else. Player service, for instance, requires more and different tooling. Barb, I'd say if you think you might not have what you need by now, you likely don't need at least some of what you have. I know I don't. There's just the problem of determining which is what. Ron N
