P.S. At this point in time, there is no such thing as an unrestored player needing "SOME work"! For a reproducing piano, count on 3-500 hrs, and $$$$$$$$$$$ in parts depending on how fussy you are. If you attempt to patch a few bellows and replace a few tubes without doing the WHOLE thing ( pouches, valves, all bellows, striker pneumatics, tubing, etc. etc. you will land in a real nightmare with a VERY unhappy customer who will end up paying double to an experienced specialist in the future, and hate you forever!!!
