FS: Kemble Upright Player
By Roger Waring

For Sale: Kemble upright pump-action player, circa 1925.

Player:  All components of player action recently overhauled.
88-note with Standard single valve stack, separate bass and treble
suction supply.  Triumphodist expression system: 'Off' gives medium
volume softened by use of treble and bass buttons, 'On' gives soft
volume with forte via accent holes in roll.  Pitch transposing lever.

Piano:  Medium size, casework rich burgundy coloured mahogany in
good to very good condition.  Nice keys, very clean in good condition.
Underdampered, overstrung action, recently overhauled.  Pleasant tone,
holds tuning well.  Matching pianola bench, newly restored.
All in all a nice pianola that plays very well with minimal effort.
Together with the matching stool this beautifully coloured instrument
would grace any home as well as providing endless hours of musical
enjoyment.

Inspections welcomed, demonstrations a pleasure.
UK Pounds 1500.  US dollars 2500.  Free delivery within mainland UK.
