PIANO

 

Paling & Co Victor Upright Piano


This steel framed piano was bought new by my family in, I think, the 1950s. Consequently, I’m guessing that it is about 60 years old.

 

It has a very nice cabinet but there are a few blemishes. I think that a good French Polisher should be able to bring the cabinet back very nicely.

 

It has stool which doesn’t quit match the cabinet, but goes with it reasonably well.

 

It is badly out of tune as it hasn’t been tuned for about 15 years. It could take some work to bring it back into good tune. 

 

There are no ‘dead’ keys, although the highest D note on the keyboard doesn’t return exactly to the strike position after having been played (it remains a little depressed below the level of the other keys), and a few of the keys produce a longer sustained note than others – in that regard the felt on some hammers may need some attention.


Pick-Up from Sydney's North Shore.
