Charles, Do you believe a 30 year old Hamburg in good condition (other than needing stringing and a new stack) might fetch between $45-50,000? or more? Thanks Paul "Charles K. Ball" <ckball at mail.utexas.edu> Sent by: caut-bounces at ptg.org 05/03/2007 08:19 AM Please respond to College and University Technicians <caut at ptg.org> To College and University Technicians <caut at ptg.org> cc Subject Re: [CAUT] Hamburg Steinway Paul, We just priced a new Hamburg D through our local dealer and were quoted $141,000--up from the $130,000 quoted last year. That price apparently does not include a bench... Charles Hi all, Here at UNL, a piano professor has a great piano in her home. It is a Hamburg Steinway D (early 70's I think) that was previously owned by Ashkinozy (spelling?) It is ready for an action rebuild, but that's not the question. She asked me to appraise it. Does anyone know what the retail for Hamburg's are these days? I told her about $150K new, but I would check it out, so I am now. I may be way off.... Thanks Paul ps; Really sorry to here of your situation, Wim. I think the good Lord has something better in mind for you. Old profs aren't always smart enough to know when to quit You can't teach an old dog new tricks. I had a similar "customer" back in Washington. She was the "all knowing all seeing" but that was in her own mind....pw -- Charles Ball, RPT Head Piano Technician School of Music University of Texas at Austin 512-471-0763 mailto:ckball at mail.utexas.edu -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
