In order to assess the condition of the piano, a consultation with a piano expert is required. The piano expert will assess the condition of the instrument including the mechanics, keyboard, resonator, the condition of the parts and will check how they hold the tuning. The assessment service costs 20 € + travel expenses. Without checking the piano, you run the risk of getting a bad instrument that will be expensive to repair. Very often the piano is kept in a very dry place (near the central heating radiators or on a heated floor), so the whirlpool is dried and does not tune, the resonator and resonator ribs are cracked or peeled off. Moths can also often cause a lot of damage to the felt and cashmere parts of the piano.
