Description
This Bechstein Baby Grand Piano was manufacutured in Berlin, Germany, in 1907, which qualifies it as antique. A baby grand is roughly six feet long by five feet wide and fits into more room configurations than a full grand piano. Bechstein is considered one of the 5 great pianos of the world and is frequently used in concert settings in Europe and, less commonly, in America. They sell from $7,000 to $100,000, depending on age, condition, and decoration. This piano was purchased by the owner's father directly from Berlin in 1989 and has been with the family ever since. The move to the current residence resulted in several scratches and one small gouge to the top by the moving company and will be repaired by the owner before sale ... or the price can be discounted $500 if the buyer wishes to repair it himself/herself (on the chance it may be dinged again in shipment). The piano has a wonderful, rich, full sound, and, aside from the scratches, is in beautiful condition. The soundboard is in excellent shape (resides in a temperature- and humidity-controlled room) and the music desk folds down under the lid and flips up when the lid is raised for playing. The piano has 85 keys. A photo of the serial number has been included so the buyer can verify the date of manufacture on the Bechstein web site. More photos are available on request, and the seller will be happy to answer any questions regarding the instrument. Because of the low price being asked, the buyer must pay freight costs. The seller queried a local shipper who will bring the piano in a specially designed, one-piano trailer express from Oklahoma to central California in 2-3 days for $3,345. If you live closer than California, of course, the cost would be much lower, and cheaper shippers can be located. This shipper claimed that larger shippers are cheaper but they box the piano and place it in warehouses until several other shipments are scheduled for the same area, which may take 2-3 months. Shipping prices to the buyer's area are available on request.
