Old piano advice needed
I would appreciate any possible assessment. This piano has been stored in a warehouse for 13 years with fluctuating temperatures and no stable humidity levels. However, it was kept dry. Before being stored, it was apparently professionally refurbished.
All keys play cleanly. The dampers press smoothly and properly. The notes initially sound fine, although of course it is out of tune. No rust or major visible damage is apparent.
Could you provide any insight into its condition and what kind of restoration would be necessary to make it fully playable again?
I would be looking at around €1000 in transport costs. Would it be worth investing time and money into this? Unfortunately, a professional piano builder cannot easily inspect it in advance.
I would be very grateful for any advice.
