FS: Chickering Ampico "A" Grand
By Mike Amoroso

For Sale: I still have not found a home for my 1926 Ampico "A" CHICKERING
Grand.  It's 5'4", restored in 1992.  I did the pneumatic restoration
myself.  I had the mahogany case refinished, also in 92.  Two years
later, after I moved to Florida, I had new hammers and bass string
installed.  I have posted a picture, although not great, for anyone
interested at:

I can also mail "real" pictures and even a video to anyone who is
interested in purchasing the piano.  As in my original notice I am asking
$10,000, but I will take any reasonable offer.  My reason for selling
this piano is that I have restored my 6'11" Mason & Hamlin Ampico "A",
and even though the Chickering is great sounding, you know who wins.

Thanks,

Mike Amoroso
