---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi folks, I'm trying to help some friends value their 1916 Bechstein upright for probable sale. I have absolutely no experience with these, don't live in an area where there are many, and don't know how to begin. Pianomart has only two, of which only one is even close in age and apparent condition. [$4500 - I don't think they'd ever get that here.] The piano is in clean original condition, great-looking soundboard and bridges, action worn but playable, a couple of broken strings, acceptable black finish. It sounds much better than it should. I was amazed. Non-overstrung bass, short bass backscale. LO-O-O-NG treble sustain, huge bass. I don't get it. Maybe they knew what they were doing! Anyway, can anyone from the Big City give me any advice on what to advise them? Thanks, Bob Davis Stockton, CA ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
