While I love my Ampico, I miss my 88-noter a lot. It got sacrificed so I could get (and fit) the ampico. It was a Remington, with an unknown player action. Built in Indiana, I believe. Anyway, it was so sensitive that I could accent individual single notes in a solo line, and get real neat syncopations going etc. Ah, well, when my job gives me a $100,000 bonus -- when my composing hobby lands me a Broadway show -- when the moon comes crashing over the mountains -- when there *is* affordable housing in urban areas ........
