Re: Kemble Minx restoration project

Thank you, all advice greatly received. On balance it seems better to sell. It's sad because my Grandparents loved it and saved so hard to buy it (bought it new in 1948), it was played lovingly, if with little actual skill (!), every day.

Kemble Minx restoration project

Seem to have lost my post!

Just after some advice if anyone can help.

I have inherited a Kemble Minx 'mini' piano.

It's a lovely looking thing but hasn't been tuned for who know's how long and has a lot of sticking keys.

Is is at all likely to be worth restoring?

Any advice gratefully received.
