Hi Jody, I have been following the thread on the thrift store
instrument. I thought I might chime in and say I restored an Aeolian
Pianola 56-P 65/88, in a Weber Upright original, which looks very
much like the one in the store. My customer's piano has the original
manual tracker. I have many pictures of this piano during and after
restoration if any one wishes to see it.
I had posted it on MMD in 2012 looking for a value 2012.08.15 02.
My customer still wishes to let it go. He said, "Do you have any
interested person, buyer, or a good charity?" I tuned and serviced it
this past summer and it still sounds and works like the 1996 delivery
day.
