FS: 1928 Chickering Ampico in California
By John Kiszla

I have a 1928 Chickering Ampico that I had intended to restore, but
fortunately I have found another instrument in working condition and
reasonably priced.  So, this "project" has to go.

It is 5'8" and finished in ebony.  The finish is in fair condition.
Originally, I believe that this piano was finished in mahogany and
later sprayed.

The Ampico system does not work.  As a piano, it plays well and keeps
a tune.  Please contact me if you are interested.
