Hi Joe,
           A good quality rebuild job will start in our shop from $13,000
Cnd add $2000 for a new pinblock if required, And $5000 for a new
soundboard if required.
We rescale the bass strings and bridge cap on this model to ensure bicord
string lengths are identical.
This model I will only pay up to $3000. Rebuilt and refinished we sell them
for $25,0000.
The piano can be an exceptional instrument, IF it is well rebuilt.
I live in Saskatchewan, Phone# 306-665-0213. Call if you need detailed advice.
Regards roger
