Re: CP33 facelift

You've gone from engineering a custom piano to this. Sad. Very sad.

"I wish my brother George was here." 

Actually, Chris, I really like the stamps.  I've tried placing stickers and whatnot on my various keyboards -- I even went so far as to "bedazzle" the keys with these clear, coloured dots of varying sizes, but the adhesive didn't last.  (Worked very well for playing in the dark -- or near-dark.)  I've got a few butterflies cluttering up the top at the moment, but nothing remarkable...

You just know that you're going to have to do a rundown of the various stamps for us -- what the heck is that cow supposed to be?  (Reminded me of "Atom Heart Mother," but it's facing the wrong way.  )

That's a great idea dhalfen! Actaully, all the stamps used are from the Royal Mail Millenium Collection (UK). I'd been thinking for some time of using stamps to adorn my keyboard. I may post the stamp lowdown, but I think Modartt wouldn't be to pleased as it is almost way off topic? Or maybe not? However, being off topic can be lot's of fun!

Re: CP33 facelift

Re: CP33 facelift

(And if you ever need to ship the keyboard anywhere, the postage is already attached...)

My cat would love to play under Sigasa's keyboard !  Now if only we could create custom skins for Pianoteq....

Holy guacamole, Chris has gone postal on us.  (Yeah, I thought of the "postage" issue, too, Jake!  Imagine walking into the post office and putting that on the counter with a knowing grin.  You're likely to be punched.  ;^)

Some people might find the keyboard's new "makeup" to be obscene, but I love it!

That's what it needs:  some hand-painted periwinkles!!!
