Hi folks...

just thought you might like to see a couple shots of an oldie that I 
bumped into the other day. Still amazingly nice sounding. Unfriggen 
believable when you think of it. The serial number puts it at 
1878-1879.  Very much of this piano is orgional stuff.  I will be 
replacing all action felt and hammers, and.... tuning it !  Thats all 
she really needs to be in fine order believe it or not.  A few hairline 
cracks in the soundboard is all I could find anywhere upon inspection. 
Ribs still glued solid as a rock to the panel.  A bit of stress obvious 
on the wooden beams in the back... but all in all its in amazing shape.

Anyways.. enjoy the shots..  Quite the bass bridge !
