English c1970, School model 6' 8" long. Always were good workhorse instruments but suffer with their school image, never a pretty piece of furniture. This is a picture of a differant one we had recently, our one currently in the workshop hasn't been cleaned yet and the casework has a reasonable amount of classroom graffiti which will be difficult to disguise. Waiting for a new owner to offer it a home, available for not much more than the cost of transporting it, We do not always have space to keep this one set up so if you wish to view it on its feet please give us a few days notice to find it and set it up, thanks.

We took this one in part exchange but it is in need of some difficult restoration to the exterior, this was once a beautiful rosewood grand piano about 5ft in length on elegent acanthus leaf carved legs it has a lot of promise. It plays fairly well and sounds reasonable, but is in a poor condition cosmetically and will take a lot of time and money to bring it back to its former glory, probably more than it is potentially worth. We may rebuild it in the future if space, time and funds allow but a lot of these great old instruments are being broken up through lack of funds to save them. If you are interested in giving this old piano a home please get in touch.
