I am the fortunate owner of a late Model A Mason and Hamlin Ampico
reproducing piano and am fairly familiar with the appearance of the
Model A and Model B drawers. It appears to me that this beautiful
Chickering piano is a Model A, not a Model B as per the Craigslist
listing.

The Model B roll is driven by an electric motor rather than the air
motor roll drive of the Model A as pictured, and has a rotating
pointer on the right side of the spool box rather than the sliding
Tempo lever of the Model A shown.

The stated price gives me encouragement that reproducing pianos are
no longer loosing value faster than they are aging.

Happy New Year to all of our friends and fellow enthusiasts around
the world -- "Let's keep the music playing!"
