Interesting Observation
The piano isn't a stringed instrument, but it has strings inside of it. In fact, the sound of a piano is produced from the hammers connected to each key, striking the corresponding string to make the sound. The ironic thing is that its impossible for the piano make a sound with out the strings (seeing as how it is were the sound originates), but since the sound is produced by the hammers striking the strings, it falls under the percussion category.
