Disklavier

What model is 5'6"? C3? What you need to do is to go to my list 
below, find the C3 price without disklavier and add about 4K to that 
price for the C3 disklavier version. In this case, you should pay 
around 30K. If possible use the Japanese price and add 4K as your 
referance price, but getting that price is kind of difficult. But 
you need to try. Since you live in CA, you have better bargaining 
power. John Waltrip in Arcadia is pretty competitive. Don't just go 
there and buy, you have to really play game with most piano stores. 
If you do not know the prices, you will pay way too much, because 
the MSRP is way too high.
