Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

There's always somebody somewhere looking for piano. That one would look good just a show piece.

 

Do you guys know how hard it is to move that piano?

 

I've moved one. I don't recommend it.

Side note: It will almost certainly need to be tuned afterward.

 

Agreed
Hire someone to move it.

 

Piano should be tuned anytime they're moved, and twice a year with season changes.

 

CSW?

 

MRS. But, I do have to stop at csw today.

 

Already have one. Built in Chicago in the 1880's for my mom's sister... Interesting fact: It is tuned 1/2 step flat (I am told this is how they did things back then) so it is an expensive rebuild to tune it. I played it as a kid, and my daughters have too.

 

Shit, that's more than I need to tune my Warwick. LOL.

Not really, but back when I had it in a hard shell case, I could go weeks without needing to tune it. I always check, of course. Good strings help

 

Boats and beers later?

 

I wish. I have my dog this week, so I have to run straight home. It sounds like he's staying with me for awhile.

 

Basses are tanks, and Warwick's are tanks of basses.

My j basses and steinberger barely ever need tuning. The Rickenbacker ain't bad either, maybe a tweak before a gig, esp at the height of summer and/or winter

 

Yeah, the neck on it is like a tree trunk. My other basses are decent, but the Thumb is in it's own league. I feel pretty spoiled sometimes.

 

They sound killer. I hate the feel of them lol. Had to borrow a Corvette for a week of gigs while our equipment truck was stuck with customs once.

Again, awesome sound. Couldn't wait to get my #1 j bass back

 

What's funny is that I don't like the feel of a sealed neck anymore. You get used to something, and end up not feeling comfortable with anything else.

 

Bass players... knew this group was okay.
