Hello All
Why all the fuss about Waddinton Pianos? Over the years I have found them to have a soft wrest plank and have never been able to keep one in tune. The Bremar models and the small grands were reasonably built but I have yet to find one that does not require restringing and repinning. They are not to be recommended if central heating is present and cannot be considered a musicians piano. A gallon of paraffin and a match I would suggest

The value over here would mean nothing to you over there different market forces. I would get a tuner to look at them, as the climate in your part of the world is not good for old pianosjohnmfedorko wrote: Any idea on how to value those pianos??? Do those serial numbers mean anything??
Thanks in advance,
