Piano Monington and Western....nice piano

Joan from Masterton District

This Monington and Western is a
very tidy little piano that has been well looked after by a music teacher.
Made in 1956 Monington and Western have the distinction of a double cast iron frame in front and behind the sound board. This makes the tuning a bit more stable.

Phil Hayward, piano tuner from Wellington tuned this piano in April last year and he has said he is willing to stand by it that it is a good piano . He said it was an above average in quality as pianos go.
.
It is overstrung and underdampered.

It is smallish in size fitting nicely into rooms that are not large. Nice tone. Cabinet is in good condition with some marks, not too bad though.
Keys are also in excellent condition. No chips or scratches.
Nice action.

I had never even thought about replacing this piano but an opportunity came up unexpectedly that was too good to miss so I took the plunge and bought another one. (It is not delivered yet waiting till I sell this one)
Rosies charge $160 to shift a piano but they said that if they delivered the one I have just bought and then delivered my one to the new address they would give us a reduction in price.

Viewing is in Kuripuni.

Thanks for looking.

Price: $850
