Free piano!
McLannahan - 30/10/08 at 01:56 PM
Afternoon all - As part of my ongoing house re-shuffle it's been decided that the piano must go.
We've been encouraging the piano to move out - leaving the back door open and hoping it would shuffle off but amazingly...It's still
here.
It's been reading the local paper looking for flats but the stairs are a bit on an issue. I suggested the piano buys something of its own but
apparently piano mortgages are hard to come by and the piano doesn't want to commit.
So - I'm now advertising the piano for free. It's a reasonable price I think you'll agree. It's an upright/upstanding piano in ok
condition. I can't find any branding/make but if I do I'll update this posting.
The ivory (plastic?) on the common central keys has lifted slightly but would make an easy repair.
It will need a slight tune at its new location but that's what you'd do with any piano when you moved it into a new environment.
It has wheels (no alloys sadly) and rolls with a bit of a chunky shove. It will need two "well-looking" people to move it though. I moved it
alone around the house and my back is still complaining about it. Having said that, I'm happy to help get the piano out of the house and into the
transport.
The outdated CD's and wind-up Bender are NOT included - I'm not made of money (says my bank manager)
Free Piano
Free Piano 2
I’m in Dinton, near Salisbury/Shaftesbury.
Any questions please get in touch.

does it play MP3 or Wav files, where's the plug go? How many instruments does it play? I can't even see the display, how do I select my
files??!

Whippy - I put your questions to the piano.
Still waiting for its answer.

note akers? advertising and selling is not your forte, perhaps you need to change your tune?

"and wind-up Bender are NOT included" - I have looked carefully and cannot find either an animated Futurama character or the other type.

I think the key is making the sale more black and white. I need to compose a better advert and clearly display the score.

It's a damn long way to come for a free piano! Not that I'm trying to put you off but you may find a closer piano that's not much money
- possibly the difference in fuel anyway?
But if it's still here come December and you're still interested, help yourself!

i thought two pages would see it gone 
if only i had space... and time.
McLannahan - 30/10/08 at 08:34 PM
It's still waiting here patiently tapping its wheel. I think it's quite excited about its new destiny.
Confused but excited. - 30/10/08 at 11:03 PM
Why not throw the insides away and turn it into a mini bar or tool cabinet? Far more useful.
