I’m not a piano expert so take that into account. I did have a piano tuner-expert stop-by and he gave it a quick once-over, played some scales, and said he nothing especially wrong with it but the soft action was due to it sitting un-used for decades. I understand the soundboard is a critical matter, so, following some YouTube advice, I had a friend shine a flashlight from the front of the soundboard and I saw no light coming through from the string-side. I don’t see any cracking at the bridge or ribs and the tone is clear with no tell-tale’kazoo’ effect. Some of the keys have chipped ivory. I have dated the piano from the serial number – 392211 – to be late 1947. Apart from the functional evaluation above. I do not, as a general rule, offer up my opinion on condition. I allow the photos here to provide the facts. I see no complications with the removal at this location. The piano is on the first floor level to the driveway.
