<<A quick question. Do you think an app. 90 year old (the customer said) Cable & Sons that I could get for free would be worth my while to get for myself to use and restore it little by little? >> Hmm, I don't know if it would be worth it or not, but it will probably depend on the size. If it is one of those 4'6" grands, probably not worth the hauling bill. If it was larger, you might have a chance at a decent piano. It WILL need rescaling, and it is possible that you will never find replacement parts like shanks and whippens for it, so consider what time it will take to rebush, re-knuckle, repin, etc. Good luck, Ed Foote
