Our kids love music and though we don't want to be the over-acheiver parents who get their kids doing too much we do think the option of piano lessons would be valuable, so a few weeks ago we bought an older piano from a family in Miami.
On tuesday we had Jason Dyck, from Piano Manna, come to tune our piano and he said it's in reasonably good shape though it has a crack in a small wooden block that needs to be glued. He gave us some pointers on things to do to make
it better. Resurfacing the hammers, adjusting the slack for each key, and leveling the keys are some of the things he suggested. Currently we're working on the cracked peice and so our piano is apart and laying on it's back with about 15 strings unhooked.

As an official piano snob (As labelled by my loving sister) I am appropriately horrified.
(much like Kate appears to be)
