GUEST,Charmion at Work Selling the Ancestral Piano (5) Selling the Ancestral Piano 25 May 04


I am considering putting the ancestral piano up for sale. It is a nice one -- good sound board, rosewood case, ivory keys -- but no-one in my generation plays it. I like portable instruments, especially things you strum and pick, and my dear spouse (Edmund) sings, and has been known to thump things. Piano-playing is an accomplishment that has basically passed us by, and we really use it only for figuring out new tunes, a job that could be done perfectly well with a small electric keyboard.

Has anyone any tips to offer? We live in Ottawa, Ontario, and the piano is a ca.-1900-vintage Heintzman upright grand (i.e., about five feet wide, almost five feet high, with practice pedal).
