<DIV> Hi Garnet</DIV>
<DIV> I am veteran rebuilder of 32 yrs. in Calif. I special=
ize in Mason & Hamlin & Stwy grand pianos. To be complete=
ly frank & candid , I find that school pianos in general are the most be=
at up & poorly maintianed of all the pianos I see. Therefore from a whol=
esale point of view they usually aren't worth much. I purchased 4 Mason=
& Hamlins from the U. of Ark. 2 years ago for $1000.00 a piece plus abo=
ut $350.00 in shipping per unit. These pianos were trashed & needed comp=
lete rebuilding. Two of the Mason A's needed new soundboards.</DIV>
<DIV> More info is helpful such as overall condition from a techs poin=
t of view, age ,color, serial no. Ivory keyes?, probably not anymore. T=
hanks for the posting & any further info.</DIV>
