Haha thanks! If you look closely you can see the castor indentation where my old Model A used to stand.

 How old is the B? I know it's not really brand new, because the newer B's (like mine) have a slightly diferent plate, which is actually the same plate as the Hamburg B's. BTW--I have those exact same caster cups. 
Close only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades, and nuclear weapons.

Why, thank you, Carl! In fact, I'm having it tuned today. I came into the game late - did you post a pic of your Schimmel???

Thanks for the info!  See these pics of a new Hamburg B that were posted a while back: ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pianoworld.com/Uploads/files/B-studio2-bag.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pianoworld.com/Uploads/files/B-number.jpg) Note the screw underneath the "B". And this pic of a new NY B: http://www.pianoworld.com/Uploads/files/SteinwayBdelivery3.JPG That's not mine. It's one someone else posted several months ago.

There's a ghost in your piano, trying to escape through the fallboard. He's holding a camera.

Beautiful pianos everyone!!! Why did I buy this RX-2? As Henry Steinway once said, "Build to a standard not a price". ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pianoworld.com/Uploads/files/IMG_KAWAI.JPG)
