My wife and I were recently married and this piano has been in her family a long time but our house is not big enough fot it. It is in a climate controlled storage now and always professional moved. Here is a report on the condition of the piano:


I visited Brian Murphy and his Mason and Hamlin grand piano today. I found it in good shape. The finish is in good condition, perhaps showing a little age. The strings are in excellent condition, not displaying any corrosion at the moment. The hammers have very little in string indentations, and the piano has a fine, warm sound. I see no problem with the sound board and the ribs are all solid. The pitch is slightly below standard A-440, but I do not foresee any problems in bringing it up to pitch. The keytops are in excellent condition and the action is free and unemcumbered. The piano is healthy and will be a fine addition to any home. Vernon Humbert, Registered Piano Technician
