My Old Bluthner Style 8

Post by joseph »

My old Bluthner style 8 is starting to give out. The bass is going tubby and the treble strings are rusted, as are the tuning pins. It has now suffered from its first ever broken string (not bad considering its a 1912 model), the E-flat an octave above middle C. The action is also needing rebuilt or replaced. Lucky I have a new piano for heavy work but I wish I could afford to have my Bluthner rebuilt. :(
