<HTML>Greetings,             As a rookie tuner, I cannot spring for = a Pierce Piano Atlas just yet.  A church has a 7' Hazelton grand. The s= erial is #26446. Would someone look up what year was this made? I saw on the= internet that some of these Hazeltons are resorable and sought after, since= they were a pretty good quality piano.        The action & pedals' box needs abou= t 30 hours of shop work to get the action into a playable condition. Soundbo= ard is half toasted,  (not the best resonance) but when you play it, it= s decent.  I told them usually, only Steinways have soundboard replaced= and it would not be worth it. So without having the board replaced, they'd&= nbsp; possibly prefer to fix it to playable at this time. Then I saw on the = internet that some of these Hazeltons are restored.         Also, the keytops are ivories and= 19 of the head pieces are missing.  I am thinking of totally replacing= the keytops with plastic. Would this be a sacrelige? What does one do with = the old ivories? Pack up the tusk and give it to them for future possible re= storation, or sell to reclaim and give them credit? How does this work? The = furniture on this piece is pretty banged up. Suggestions on what to do? Thanx, Julie Gottschall Reading, PA</HTML>
