Betsy Ross pianos

[Farrell]

I beg your pardon! The Lester "Betsy Ross" spinet was an average quality
spinet. It far surpasses the quality level of others like the "Grand" spinet
and Aeolean products. Of course, far surpassing these is not saying much. I
made a great regulating bench out of a free Betsy Ross. Great bench, even
greater sound when you drop a tool on it! (The back is the top of the table
& I left all strings on!) The top made a nice shelf, and the knee board,
several shelves. I have another nice shelf with a front lip made from the
fall board. The possibilities are endless!

I say, if you have a shop - don't work on it - make it work for you!
