over 15 years old, so has worn rather well.\u00a0 I have asked for a new one&#8230;just for sentimental reasons so that when this one falls apart, I will be able to put the new one on, and keep it just for family use.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.denleymusic.com\/musicblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/June-2011-and-Matthews-Assembly-009.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"

the pedals, I have them stand up so that they are balanced.\u00a0 If my students are too big for the foot stool, but aren&#8217;t quite tall enough to have their feet flat on the floor, I use the two phone books in their original packaging.\u00a0 My younger students sit on the fabric covered phone book and have their feet on the blue foot stool.<\/p>\n<p><a
