FS Free: Marshall & Wendell Top Loading Ampico
By Mark Williams

Hi MMDers!  A few years ago, I picked up a small upright Marshall &
Wendell piano with a top-loading Ampico roll player.  The mechanism of
course needs complete rebuilding, and I've never found time to do it.
It's not "unmolested", but seems relatively complete-to-parts.  I need
to move this piano now.

I'd hate to see this piano go to the dump, because the piano action
itself seems to be in exceptional shape.  Looks like it was hardly ever
played.  It was in great tune when I received it, although it isn't now
(stored in a nice dry warehouse where temperatures range from 50-80
degrees).  The case design is plain but in excellent shape.  The
keytops are perfect, the casters need work.  Comes with original bench.

This piano is located in San Jose, Calif.  I have a forklift and can
load it into a truck for anyone who wants to save this little gem.

Best regards,
Mark Williams
San Jose, California
