FS: Knabe Ampico Grand, Louis XIV Case
By Allan Silver
I mentioned I had an Ampico Knabe for sale and have received two offers.
I would like some help on determining the true value of my instrument for
negotiation purposes. I am elderly and need the funds to live on.
FS: 6-foot Knabe Ampico A in walnut Louis XIV case. Condition is very
good. Mechanism plays but needs adjustment. I do not have written
documentation that it was formerly owned by Herbert Hoover but I would
imagine sales records, if still available, might disclose this.
Condition of the case looks as though someone placed a sheet over it
for 20 years. Tone is excellent. I also have many rolls, most in good
playable condition, some played by Gershwin, Rachmaninoff and Paderewski.
