Default Getting rid of a piano.

When she comes here and we hear her play her old black piano, it
makes it all worthwhile. This talk of smashing a decent piano is
sacrilege. It could change someone's life. It's your duty to try to
find them.


Amen to that.
Acoustic sound isn't valued too highly these days


Digital sound is often undervalued by old farts.
A decent (more than ~£99) digital piano is almost certain to be better
than a 1920s upright if it wasn't tuned two hours ago if its connected
to some proper speakers.



better in what way ?

I have yet to come across a digital keyboard which can compare with a
half decent real piano in terms of feel and dynamics

Give me a proper piano any day

and yes, I have both, learnt piano "classically" etc
