Thanks for the feedback, Gregor.  This one was a light wood (maple?  birch?), and about 120 cm (48").

  I see Fazer uprights not so seldom. Produced in Finnland and the brand was taken over by Hellas in 1989. Not bad, but nothing to be proud of. A warm tone is not the first thing that comes in my mind when I think about Fazer. But I believe to remember that the hammers react very well to voicing, so it should be easy to get a worm tone. I wonder if they produced pianos higher than 110 cm. All Fazers and Hellas I saw were small console pianos. Once I saw a Hellas with a transparent fallboard made of plexiglas, very nice. And once I saw a very strange piano with red and yellow keys ( or was it green and red?) and I think that was a Fazer too.
