Condition

From professional 3rd-party piano appraisal (see full report with the photos):

Condition — Strengths.
• Near-perfect overall condition — cosmetically and mechanically outstanding for a 44-year-old instrument.
• Soundboard perfect — no cracks, no defects.
• Strings show no oxidation; excellent condition throughout.
• Pinblock tight — currently sitting +6 cents sharp, confirming strong tuning stability.
• Action smooth, responsive, and consistent — Yamaha’s renowned lightweight action at its best.
• Damper felts perfect, uniform sustain movement. Hammers very lightly grooved — above-average for age.
• Plastic key tops in perfect condition, no chips. All three pedals functioning perfectly.


Condition — Concerns.
• Currently averaging +6 cents sharp — normal seasonal variation from summer heat and humidity. A standard tuning will bring it to concert
pitch A440. This is the only service this piano needs.

***Professional Piano Movers Required***

Mover's note: The piano is located in an open side room right next to the front door, so the front door will be the only obstacle to navigate.
