Tuner's note in piano -funny

[Fenton Murray]

You know, as techs we get pretty jaded and forget some of the beautiful styling in pianos, at least I do. I just love the looks of that piano and remember how I liked the other one I've seen, after I quit cursing it's ancestry for the hard time I had getting into it, as I remember it really was in terrible shape. Anyway, that piano's look is right up my address, even if it is a PoS musically, or is it PSO, I guess it depends on who you're hanging out with, although after you finished with it, Terry, I'll bet it was very nice.

  Indeed it is. Two screws at the music desk base and the middle top section hinges back, four (I think) screws at the right and left edges of the kneeboard middle section and the two curved end pieces hinge out like a gullwing sports car. And then you're good to go! Well, at least then you've got your Wurly open.....

  This particular one that was pictures was the lady's childhood piano. I told her it wasn't worth putting money into, but she wanted to. So it got an action refurbish, full action regulation, damper felt, keytops and refinished the case. Darn pretty little piano that functioned surprisingly well.

    This looks like the model with sides that either remove or hinge away. Can't remember but I think I've only seen 1 or 2. Took me forever to figure out how to open it. Maybe I'm wrong, anyway, a very pretty old piano, I love it. And no, I don't want to buy it.
