Pianos for Sale

At Young's Piano Shop we are lucky to have many opportunities to buy quality pianos in prime shape for reconditioning.  Turning away most, we focus on finding the best instruments to match the needs of our clients.  Every piano that passes through the shop receives several tunings at A=440, replacement, improvement, and regulation of the moving action parts as needed, and work to maximize the exterior appearance. 

 

We can easily make arrangements for professional delivery anywhere.

 

If you haven't seen just the piano you are looking for please contact me or check back again as we not only have the pianos shown below, but also house others that are "on deck" for restoration.  Kindly scroll down to see the current selection.

McPhail Upright

 

28 X 62 X 54 inches tall.  Established in 1837 McPhail pianos are among the Boston pianos that I particularly look for.  In two words:  consistent quality. 

 

This particular piano has been under my care for many years.  Look closely almost anywhere on the cabinet, and you'll see areas where the old veneer and finish has been repaired.  Step back a few feet, and it's an attractive piece despite the repair work.  This could be an ideal piano in a home with young children, but where the owner still wants something that makes a nice impression.  Book-matched walnut veneer.

New keytops and action reconditioning give it a nice feel.  New bass strings provide an excellent lower register to compliment the clear treble.  From 1913.  Matching bench can be ordered.

 

Price: $1000

Chickering Square Grand Piano $8,000

 

1858  37 X 72 X 33 inches tall.  This is a piece of living history.  Not to be confused with modern grand pianos, the square type is valued for its representation of an earlier age in home instruments as well as for over all beauty.  This walnut cabinet and original finish has been preserved along with the rest of the piano, with an eye toward maintaining historical integrity.  Except for the new strings, all parts are original and in very good condition.  An identical Chickering piano was featured in the Smithsonian Institutes "Piano 300" exhibit in Washington D. C.  Click here: http://piano300.si.edu/collectn.htm and scroll down to see it on their website.

An interior view of the Chickering, showing the new strings, sound board, and serpentine treble bridge.  Jonas Chickering's innovative cast iron plate is complimented by his early use of the "double repeating" action and the use of the repetition lever.  This same action was used in Chickering concert grand pianos until about 1890. 

In this view of the Chickering action, you can see the repetition lever just below the green hammer rest felt.
