Any Piano Players out there
I have a seven year old daughter who is in her second year of piano. I am thinking of buying her a full size (88key?)
for christmas. Looking for comments on an Acustic vs. Electric/Digital?

Thanks Frank,
You are a man of many talents.
I too like the idea of just plugging it in. Ability to move,
no tuning,humidity issues.
Her instructor is from the old school and has no use for the electric.
I am looking at the Yamaha.
The one with headphone jacks!
Frank, I know you like woodworking,really like your bookcase.
I have posted a few pictures of this past summers projects you might find interesting.
The last two were on a renovation of a 1760 house, as the sill shows.
The windows were flashed with Birch Bark, still white and in tack.
George Washington was just a Boy.

Thanks for all the comments, I believe the "moving it" issue
will make the decision for the electric.
Thanks for the comment on my beams Frank. Those posts are
two cedar tree's right out of the woods. I just pealed them
and sealed them. Kind of tricky plumbing a tapered log.

Are you talking about a screwed down metal roof or the standing seam? I assume being an old farm house your 12/12
roof is living space upstairs. If you have a decent amount
of insulation I would not worry about the noise. The best sound is the sound of ice/snow sliding off. You may have
to take that into consideration as to where you park your truck. IMHO the standing seam roof is the only way to go.
I'm having one installed in a week or so on my current project,28x36 garage with a 12/12 roof.
I am having the same crew do the facia boards as well while they are right there.

Frank,
I have seen the shake type, they come in a 3- 4' panel. They look nice, but I'm not sure about walking on them after? The standing seam is a tried and true roof. The only
concern is the installer. Make sure they address you ventilation before hand. And check out some of their work
that is a couple of years old.
They do make some snow stops that work well over doorways
if your situation warrants it. I believe they must be installed during roof installation.
Just trying to share some mistakes.

Thanks for your imput.
I have been looking at the ypd 113, around 1000.00, which is
my limit at this point at age seven. Not knowing if she will stay with it.
It does have the weighted keys.
Any comments?

DKL..
I bought the the 113 yamaha.
Thank you for your interest and suggestions.
I thought about the 120, but felt like I was spending
at the top of my comfort zone already. It is more
than a christmas gift, I am trying to keep her interested in the lessons,and I hope the lesson of disipline that comes with it.
Not to mention, the pleasure her mother and I get of watching and listening
to her master a song.
Merry Christmas !
