Aeolian and Steck

Post by ridgley »

Can anyone tell me about Aeolian and Steck grand pianos made or sold from hayes around the 1930's
Are they good manufacturer's?
Is an overstrung iron frame good or do I steer clear?
Tips on things I need to look for when buying would be most helpful!

They made good solid pianos, many of which were used as bases for pianolas, so are well capable of taking a beating. As ever, it depends on how they've been treated in the intervening years!
