I'd like to say that that picture is priceless...but the price is actually cast into the plate. Wowzers.

Of course, I would not give you $775 for that beast today.

Yea, I see your point.

I don't care for this style - "continental" I think its called? Way too plain, and the lack of front legs makes it look all wrong to me. All this dissing said, this is the probably one of the better looking pianos of its type - probably because of the woodgrain.

Just give me that fretwork!

Zorba, you and I have a love of old wood cabinets and furniture. Some may be a little over the top for my home, but I surely appreciate that many piano makers also were exquisite furniture makers.

Makes it really hard for me to see a large box of shiny black!

Still thinking though that I could alter the new boxes with old fretting.

Please...if anyone finds old pianos on the sidewalk, take out the top panel for me to work with!!!

I'm planning on refinishing my old Hobart M. Cable eventually and am thinking of adding a bit of gingerbread to it at the same time. It'll never be as pretty as many I've seen, but any relief of its total squareness would be something, even if its just a bit of fluting on the legs or edges.

I don't see all the fascination with black, plain or otherwise. I just love the richness of deep woodgrain. This said, if I were to buy a "painted" piano, it just might be white, like this Sohmer:



To me, this just looks classier than black - but I know I'm in the minority. But I'd much rather have woodgrain!
