My mother can't play piano anymore and she needs some cash, so I am trying to sell her Knight upright piano for her. But I know nothing about it other than this:
It's a Knight!
A label on the inside with the Knight logo also says, Registered Design 812773
A stamp on the soundboard says, 68084
A label on the bar that the hammers rest on says 'Schwander'.
It has always lived in the same room since mum got it (I can't remember when that was but it was at least 15 years ago).
The room has always been kept at a pretty steady temperature and has always been dry.
She used to have it regularly tuned/maintained but hasn't had a guy in for three years to my certain knowledge. But it's still nicely in tune (I'm a musician and a recording engineer, so I do recognise out of tune when I hear it!)
It's in very good condition - I can only see one very small mark on one corner, otherwise it's spotless and clean.
Can anyone help me with what sort of price I could reasonably expect to get for it? Are there any clues as to its age? The type of wood veneer?
Any thoughts appreciated.
but.....
