You all are making me wish there was a documentary on
the Discovery channel....'Man and his instrument'....(lol)
I wish they didn't drop mine off the truck when it was delivered...
I probably would have hired three strongmen to meet them
and perhaps change its fate when it arrived , as it wasn't working
But the stories of what we've all gone through...good gosh
I would say is PBS worthy for sure!
Happy Holidays to Everyone!!!!

Don't be afraid. My feeling is it must be really well done. My CS80
was moved (with me and all my circus) from Europe to Japan in 2003.
Five 5 weeks in the container on the sea, then another 6 years packed
sleeping in the garden house in temperatures between 0 to 40.
Finally a week ago I have found enough time, place and courage to dig
it out of other still packed instruments, stand it, change voltage
selector and fuse and switch it on. Believe me or not - it plays even
better then before, it needs only cleaning, tuning and setting.
Everything works as expected. She is probably happy to be back home
from the 20 years long world journey (as it was before in USA).
