I'd love to have a tuned upright!!  Would anybody suggest a good one?
 
Oh, and cclarry, thank you for posting all this stuff!!  You're amazing!!

For an upright piano that has been tuned, I'd suggest checking out SampleTekk's Rain Piano (which has been around a long time, but is still a very nice piano; http://www.sampletekk.com...d=STDELIVER-004-FORMAT ) and Native Instrument's Steingraeber Upright Piano (another piano library that has been around several years, but is nice; http://www.native-instrum...e/keys/upright-piano/) and Giant (a more recent upright piano library that's a little different with a standard and cinematic version and some very cool presets; http://www.native-instrum...lete/keys/the-giant/).

I second the motion on both the Steingraeber Upright and Rain's, as I have them both.
 
I got the Steingraeber a number of years ago in NI's Komplete Classics for quite a good deal through the Cake store here, [along with the included B4 II Organ, the Elektrik Piano which has boatloads of choices & Pro 53 Synth], and out of the 3 top quality grands and that one upright in there, I always seem to go for that Steingraeber right away, and never seem to even try the other 3.
 
Edit: Day After Addition
 
Forgot to mention the Upright Piano from NI. 
 
I fired the Steingraeber up and one of the presets is 'Wunderkind', which is also one in the 'Upright Piano' from NI.
[Seems that a cross over may have been partially done between the 2.]
 
I did a track with it recently and really liked it.
It's a tuned Upright as well.
 
I got it for $19 from MF few months ago [thanks to 'cclarry' I think] in case anyone might be tempted to watch for it.
 
Maybe it will go on sale again as the stupid deal of the day. For now, it's too much though, but for $19 it was a steal!

Probably the upright I have that I like the best is the Vertikal jazz from Sampletekk. I have the Pianoteq U4 as well, and that's a good sounding instrument.
 
My absolutely favorite based on demos is the Hume included in the Ivory Uprights package, but it's the only one in the set I really want which makes it a bit pricey. If I could buy that one on its own I'd jump on it.

I have the Vertikal Jazz too and agree it's a nice upright. I should have mentioned it!

Btw, I emailed the Simple Sam Samples dev and let him know that I'd love to see a tuned version of his Vintage Upright Piano and he responded very kindly that he's open to it and that it wouldn't be that much of a hassle considering that it could use the same scripting as his current piano library.  So, if others feel similarly, I'd recommend dropping the dev a line. But I really do appreciate that he's released what seems to be, based on the audio demo, a pretty nice sampled piano library on sale for only 29 bucks. I'd love to see more KONTAKT libraries at that price point.
