i just thought these were too funny not to share, note not my instruments, i will say that it shows incredible creativity and a desire to not let anything get in the way of playing your piano

Liked the first picture.  The second one brought back some bad memories at school :), when I had to learn on battered pianos.  Just hope the piano in the picture actually sounds better.

lol i know all to well about being relegated to practicing on PSOs (piano shaped objects which is what they are, they could hardly qualify as instruments).  but the happy accident is if you can make on of those old girls sing, you sound quite nice when you sit down and make the proper adjustment on a real piano. :)

Unfortunately I took the opposite approach and hammered away at those dinosaurs under the illusion of virtuosity so it still sounded bad when I played on a Steinway :)
