This is a really unique Art Deco Bechstein Model A1 (6ft) 

 

 

It was extensively renovated by Robert Morley and Co in 2017 at a cost of 5,200 (invoice available on request), including professional cleaning of soundboard bridges, strings and metalwork and hammer action with centre pins, springs and surfaces burnished. The keyboard and key-frame has been cleaned, pins bat and balanced, regulated and voiced. It is as good as new, with not a mark on the case. It has clearly been loved and looked after since it was bought in Harrods in 1924.

 

 

Dimensions: 97.5cm (38″) High, 146cm (57″) Wide, 178cm (70″) Long, Height 190cm with lid raised 

 

 

It plays beautifully, with an unmistakable ‘growly’ bass notes of a Bechstein and a round bell like tone in the middle and upper register.

 

Hear it in high definition https://youtu.be/whWRAip82PE and here https://youtu.be/Rw_KG1tiHlI 

 

 

A real piece of Hollywood glamour, and a lovely instrument. I will be moving and won’t have the space for it, but I’ll be very sad to see it go.

 

 

Prospective purchasers are welcome to make an appointment to come and play it (in London SE18).
