perfect-fit piano
on: December 31, 2005, 04:47:35 PM
it takes a minute to load because there is a video of someone playing this piano that is made to fit small hands (and can be interchanged with a regular keyboard)

www.ivanhoe.com/science/story/2005/10/60a.html

btw, a small hand is described here as 8" or less measuring outstretched span from tip of pinky to thumb.  (which mine is exactly 8" unless i force it by pulling on my thumb).

By the way you can get a tailor made suit why is it rude to get a tailor made piano/ or is it just expensive :)
