Dear Friends, We don't see many older 'American' pianos up here in the northland but I have an opportunity to acquire a 1934 Harwood 5' 2" grand (made for Jenkins Music of Kansas City). Although the piano appears to be of 'robust' design, it needs full rebuilding. Detectable downbearing along both bridges; good sustain on plucked treble strings; 'modern' style action. Looks like a suitable 'rainy-day' project (I say as it's snowing furiously outside!!). Anyone experienced one of these? Comments please? Best regards from the slushy Canadian prairie, Stan Kroeker Registered Piano Technician
