Bechstein upright

I have been offered a Bechstein upright, serial no: 57279, for ?750. It was a musician?s instrument, regularly played and tuned. It has a lovely touch and tone. Apart from a few key-tops needing some attention, it seems in very good condition. Could you advise on whether this seems a reasonable price?

Many thanks

It is difficult to say with out seeing the piano

But look at it like this, would you buy a secondhand car from a driving instructor

Get a tuner to look at it

Thanks for your response. Can you recommend a tuner in NW London area?

My new Bechstein Classic 118 arrived today. It has a lovely feel and although the tone is not spectacularly loud, like some pianos, it is really good and expressive and after several hours playing it does not tire. The chords sound lovely and I assume, compared with my Seiler, the harmonics all blend well. My wife and I are both very pleased. I am sure it will give us many years of pleasure.
