-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Broadwood & Son, 1807 Mahogany, line inlaid, 2 drawers for music, 6 turned and reeded legs, original pedal, 5½ octaves.  This piano has been thoroughly restored to a high standard, and is in excellent playing order. Superb patination — could be placed alongside any high quality antiques. Reliable touch and stable tuning. The legs have wooden screw threads for easy dismantling. The tone is bright, very much late eighteenth century rather than romantic: Mozart's turns and embellishments gain a marvellous clarity on this piano. Although the appearance is typical for the period 1805 - 1810, the tone is very much of the 1790s. NEW MP3 file for this instrument.
