Restoring a Piano

Video Transcript

Okay, we've seen the inside of a piano, we've brushed off the cobwebs, we've seen the cracks, the dents, the mars on the piano. We've gone through all of these things. Now we've also gone through our resources. We've checked the Internet, we've looked at our books, we've looked at a lot of information to assess the value of the piano. The reasons for restoring a piano--it's a matter of balance. Is the piano a really good name brand piano? Or is it grandma's heirloom piano? You might want to restore this junky piano that belonged to your grandma because of grandma. But if you have a name like Baldwin, or Steinway, or Biesendorfer, or Yamaha, it's going to be worth refinishing that piano. Definitely put the money in, you will get your money out of it. Pianos are a personal thing. They mean something very personal to me. I love to play them, I love great pianos, but I also understand that pianos are nothing more than musical memories that you can use for years and years to come. That's a piano.
