Hi, I'm looking to buy a used Steinway baby grand piano 5'4" (Asian model with special wood for high humidity). Can anyone suggest where I should start looking? Or put wanted ads up? I can think of YWCA but where else?
Any leads welcomed! Please call 9130 2066. Urgent. Thanks

i didn't know steinway made baby grands! try the conservatories at hku and cuhk for leads and notice boards, and of course ask at the bigger piano vendors. If it is urgent, you may want to consider rental in the short term. There are piano practice studios with terrible uprights in tight conditions available on an hourly basis if you just need to practice desperately, otherwise just sneaking into to practice rooms at the universities might do the trick for access to a decent grand (that's what i did!).
finally.. check and advertise in the HKmagazine!
cheers!

You might also want to check Tom Lee. A while back they used to have second hand sale classifieds posted on in their shops.

A good place to look or ask for one is also the neighbourhood Park N shop / Welcome notice boards.
