I have an M in the shop on spec which needs retringing. I'd rather sell it wholesale but rebuilders aren't offering much more than I paid for it. So I'm considering a retail/wholesale which would be a low price to the public (but more than a rebuilder). There's some bass strings missing and if someone is about to unstrung an M, maybe they could cut the wire at the coil so that I could splice them into this piano for presentation. Heck, if the strings aren't outright dead and don't respond to twisting, the piano could squeak by a few more years with just action work if that were the route the prospective buyer wanted to take. 8 string are needed: 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, 32, 36, 38. So if it gets restrung right away, I'd hate to have wasted the dough on new replacements since there are so many. If the person with the strings will be in KC, I could get them then. I'd even buy you your favorite libation :-) Contact me privately if you are at that restringing juncture. -- Regards, Jon Page
