Comments on: Founder’s Day http://storyladyblog.com/?p=1881 Everyone has a story. I happen to have a million and can't shut up about it.

You might be able to just remove the back of the piano, gut it that way, and then replace the back and not take any pictures that show the piano from the back. Gosh, I don’t know! Sorry. I’m no help. That would look so cool though!

From what I know its just a standard upright piano, but seeing as I have zero experience here I don’t even know if such a thing would be possible. Can you just take the heavy harp piece out?? What do you think?

You should have been there b’cuz I need to talk to you about something super super serious. Your parents chopped down the tree in your front yard without so much as a warning or a friendly phone call! “hey, alicia. Remember that tree you used to climb and that brought you so much joy in your childhood? Can we kindly remove it?”
It was just… gone. They could have at least waited until I had completely gotten over Speedy’s closing. For heaven’s sake.

Don’t you just love it? We need a scanned copy for sure. As far as gutting pianas… I’m no expert. I just started hacking mine up, and I’m still using pieces of it to this very day. Gutting it was the best decision I ever made :) I think it all depends on how it’s structured. Ours was fairly easy to take apart because we were only focused on salvaging the wood, and I admit that I wanted the wood to be pretty banged up and junky looking so I was totally fine when our hammer slipped and whacked the side… just adds all the more to the beauty, haha! Did you find a hackable piano?? I want to see some pictures!

Is that nunna and pumpa in that picture?? So classic!

And, I need to talk shop with you asap. Specifically about gutting pianos. Tips and tricks for gutting the inside, while keeping the outside intact, specifically. Is such a thing possible??
