As a service to it's owner, I'm finding what the market will bear for a Steinway E 1895 upright that's all worn out, never been rebuilt, no bench. Cabinet is in fair condition, refinishable. Action rattles like the computer keyboard when it's played, numerous poor repairs have been done and the felts are heavily worn. I would expect it needs a total action replacement, most likely the soundboard as well, and of course, strings and tuning pins. Owner wants to consider the possibility of trading up...... sell existing piano, buy newer used one. To do this, she wants some numbers up front. Rebuilding is far too expensive, buying a different one is a whole bunch more economical ..... less $$$$$. Offers??
