I love sitting at my Steinway piano - no knobs, no buttons, no latency - and no music unless I make it...

My roommate's Baldwin Acrosonic sits unplayed forever because there's usually someone watching TV in there.

I've told this story before, so turn down the volume if you've heard it.
I used to work for a blind and drape company that serviced apartment complexes all over the D/FW Metroplex. One of my stops had a baby grand in their lobby, and I started making a point of arriving there at lunch time when I knew the staff was gone so I could bang away on it.
The manager caught me once and asked me about my playing, how long, if I had lessons, etc. and if the piano was any good.
I told him it was fine except for being a little out-of-tune.
A couple weeks later I went by there and there was a man tuning it.
It sounded much better after that.

Except a real piano. 😜

Are you sure?  Maybe that's not like one either.

Oh, and I would check schools and churches to get rid of that baby grand! 😉

I have asked around plenty, including a couple of nightclubs. Despite the Great Bay Area Exodus of Creative People, I still have a small network of musicians and tossed it out there. It would probably cost over a couple of hundy to move it. The harp and pinblock are in such good condition, I know the poor thing has decades of useful playing life in it.

The issue is that digital pianos have gotten so good and so inexpensive. A piano teacher can bring a piano into a student's home that has great action and that never goes out of tune. They can also turn the volume down so as not to annoy the other occupants of the house.

I feel like I'm trying to give away a slide rule. Or heck, even a pocket calculator. You might be required to use a dedicated calculator when taking an examination, but other than that, why would anyone own one?
