Seek Serviceable Player Piano in Seattle Area
By David Dewey

Hi All,  My niece grew up with a player piano in her house (her
family's, not mine -- amazing how folks with similar interests
meet) and now that she and her husband have a home, she would like
to have a player too!  Not one that uses floppy disks but a good
ol' fashioned roll-playing player piano.

Now, neither of them have the time nor inclination to rebuild one --
they need a reasonably priced, good-working player.  I told her
I would look around.  They aren't in a big hurry either.  I have
corrected some information she got from her side of the family (like
"$400 will get you a good working piano")!

For some reason, she never thought about her Uncle David when she
started looking; she chased down folks that had her family's piano.
She feels very chagrined about that.

So, hoping I can help her out, I turn to y'all!  Thanks!

David Dewey
