Hey Steve, Nice photo. Cute dogs. Lots of neat presents. The name on the piano's fall-board is somewhat blurry on my computer screen. Is that a Cunningham? Best, Bear

A few articles that I have read say Elvis played Knabe pianos. So I'm thinking the gold one may be a Knabe.

I believe it when I hear it On the other hand - as long as you are willing to pay the (most likely hefty) premium, I am sure Steingraeber will also make you such an "art" case ... I was told that someone had ordered two in a chrome finish and with a plate in a blue finish (and they made them for him).

Charles,
I am disappointed you did not notice that the big watter tank underneath the piano is not filled up high enough!
