Christmas in July?

July 11, 2007 by Eric

You could also say this is in the “my eyes were bigger than my stomach” category. I got tool obsessed while at the PTG convention in Kansas City and ordered a bunch of stuff from both Schaff and PianoTek. I’ve known the Johnson brothers at Schaff for decades and prefer them, but they don’t have some of the cooler new stuff PianTek has.  However, man, is PianoTek expensive.

Anyway sent in an order to PianoTek without totaling it….$360!! So I had to remove the coolest stuff for now, those key weighting weights in the wooden box, the instant hygrometer and the digital tape measure…damn! I need balance and front rail punchings more.
