I remember a magical time when Music Planet hosted a Gearfest. Is that a possible option?

...or are the $35,000 pianos still too precious to let us near them?

I'd do the 'rapa if it came down to it.

There must be somewhere in Upper Hutt, but I can't think off the top of my head. MP like Ed said would be wicked too. The last one there was when I fell in love with the TH30...

Upper Hutt is the one where you have to drive all the way down to Wellington proper, then back up the North Island, right? Or is it quicker to go past Palmy, over the hills past the Tui brewery, and drive south?

Not quite all the way into Wellington, you turn off at Paremata and go over Haywards. Or you can do the Palmy way as described. No idea which is quicker.
