Before you call it a PSO and say it's worth hardly anything, remember there are special circumstances: Piano That Belonged to Elvis Is Sold .c The Associated Press MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - A white Knabe grand piano once owned by Elvis Presley sold this week for $685,000. Memphis guitarist-music producer Robert A. Johnson and partner Larry Moss sold the piano Monday to Michael Muzio, chairman of Blue Moon Group Inc. Muzio said he hopes to put the piano on a casino-sponsored promotional tour and then use it for an exhibit at a proposed rock museum in Walt Disney World. He also acquired Johnson's Memphis Music label and several other pieces of rock memorabilia, including a Presley guitar. Muzio said he paid a total of $1.3 million for the properties. Presley's friend George Klein said Elvis enjoyed playing the piano at his Graceland mansion. Graceland memorabilia consultant John Heath said Presley purchased the piano after he bought Graceland and used it until 1969, when his wife, Priscilla Presley, gave him a new Steinway grand piano.
