Oh well, if this deal falls through, I'll justīuy a fixer-upper for dirt cheap off Craig's, so Since 1926! If he does call me, perhaps it wouldīe risky to offer $4k.he might get pissed off Want to sell it, because it's been in his family Sale, because sub-consciously he actually DOESN'T Have this piano after a year of putting it up for I'm making him work too hard, or because I'm asking And today I left him a message toīoy, I hope he doesn't doesn't blow me off because Who tuned his piano, and I haven't heard backįrom him. He could send me contact info of the last tuner I left him a voice mail and a text, asking him if Uh oh.I might have scared the seller away! Pianos has apparently gone down, so perhaps this I checked for excess wiggle or "play" in the keys, and they were solid.Ĭracks in the sound board might scare some peopleĪway, and additionally, the market for acoustic The felt on the hammers was practically new, barely played.
So I know the piano holds a tune, because it was due for a tuning, but was still in decent tune.
He was honest about how long his piano was on the market, so I believe him when he claims he tunes it once a year around x-mas. I checked for any cracks in the bridge, and couldn't find any. Well, I'm definitely not a piano tech, so I knowīut I know a good piano when I play one, and this Whether the piano is a great find, a dud, or something in between it's worth spending $100-200 for a careful evaluation. If all that rebuilding work was done and done well at one point, why is it so inexpensive? Just be cautious.

Of course, it's a big plus that you like the piano so much but maybe it's only good compared to some of really bad ones you've seen. Based on your opening post I'm not certain you have the experience to evaluate the piano. Very few non techs(certainly including myself here) know enough to evaluate a piano without taking a big risk. My thoughts are that you should only trust evaluations by experienced techs in this forum and a tech you hire to evaluate the piano.
