Also, ARTURIA has just released a V PIANO based upon physical modeling and there demo video has a great sounding honky tonk piano.  I only just got this today and haven't had a chance to play around with it yet.

That's a great suggestion. There is a demo version so it can be tried with little risk. I must admit I have been preoccupied with the fantastic new Synclavier but the piano sounded pretty good and very varied but I don't think I tried the honky tonk yet.

I just fired up the Arturia V piano and the two Honkytonk presets "Honkybar" and "Honkytonky" are very good. Its also quite adaptable changing the room and microphone configurations can quickly change the sound. Then dig deeper to adjust reverb, eq, detune, hammer hardness and a range of other parameters.

Building your own can be a fun time. Start your multi with an upright put in some layers of Chromophone. Different delay on left and right channels. pump up some of the high mids and higher. harmonics. A little chorus. Play around with a bunch of reverbs. Sounds like fun.

And detuner. Don't forget the detuner.

The Lady Madonna and Obla Di Obla Da pianos in EastWest Fab Four would be a good start.

I forgot about Fab Four - but I dont have "Obla Di Obla Da" showing up on mine??? I have Composer Cloud. The Lady Madonna is very honky but not beer soaked like Arturia's Piano V's "Honkybar". There is also a Honky Tonk in the GM section of Goliath which is passable.
