Hi – this is my wife’s piano that she’s had since it was bought for her by her parents in (she thinks) 1985 or 1986. So it’s had one owner since new. It’s been looked after and regularly tuned. It’s in very nice nick – a couple of tiny nibbles out of the wood that you would only see if you were looking at floor level. Attractive looking and sounds nice. Nice action.
It has an Schwander action which as far as I can tell is very good quality and I haven’t found other Challens that seem to have that. Or at least I can’t see they have from the markings. Anyway, I’m no expert, but for sure it’s a nice instrument.
The reason we are selling is is we are getting another piano that belonged to my father and as he died earlier in the year it’s of sentimental value and we don’t really need two.
I THINK we are keeping the stool unless there is one with my dads piano but don’t think there is. If you really want it, that could be discussed. It’s certainly not included in the sale for the moment.
Obviously this is collection only, and if you know pianos you will know that weight is significant. It’s not like a slightly heavier bed or wardrobe! We could help you arrange transport at your cost/risk if you need it. We have been in touch with a few firms re bringing my Dad’s piano from Sussex up to here (South Cambridgeshire). One smart possibility would be to ask them to bring this to you after dropping my dad’s piano – FYI that will be on Wednesday 2nd September. But it can be collected at other times.
The starting price reflects that we have already had an offer from a trader for 250 so we need this bettered to let it go.
Thanks for looking, and any questions please do ask. I’ll try to answer.
Jeremy
