Weber  Grand Piano
Foot Pumped Player

Mahogany Cabinet, Original Keytops

SALE PENDING!

This piano is a Weber grand piano, foot pumped player, with a very nice cabinet.  It is not a Duo-Art reproducing piano, but rather a fairly rare foot pumped grand player.  I believe it has Themodist capabilities - it has the holes in the tracker bar, divided stack and expression box.  It has been restrung in the past using oversize pins and after driving the pins I expect torque readings to be very acceptable.  The player mechanism does play fairly well (see video); however, it is an older restoration and would benefit from at least a thorough teardown and reconditioning if not an outright restoration (depending on how much time you have and/or $).  I have not ruled out performing this reconditioning in our shop and raising the price accordingly.  I have finally tested the player with the pumping pedals - they do function though it is a fair amount of work.  I took the video above using the suction box that was retrofitted in the past.  The action plays quite well manually - there are a couple of sticking keys which are easily corrected while the player mechanism is out for servicing.  Last but not least, the cabinet is in excellent condition and needs nothing more than a little touchup, cleaning and polishing.  We do restoration work like this, but have quite a bit or work at the moment, so we're selling a few of our project pianos.  If you are interested in having it restored, let me know and I will list a buy it now auction for the restoration work, though completion time would likely be over a year for a total restoration.  Serious prospects email me and I will provide contact info for references.

Personal inspection is welcomed.  If you happen to fly in to Texarkana, give us a little advance notice and we'll pick you up.  Certainly feel free to contact an independent local tech for an appraisal and let us know if you would like additional photos.
