But if the piano was indeed subjected to excessive wear, and the worn parts have been rebuilt/replaced, what you should have is an instrument that's basically as good as new, unless someone very unskilled or careless performed the work. To my understanding, which is admittedly limited, a rebuilt piano that is fairly new-like the one you're looking at-might possibly need to have new hammers, flanges, key bushings, or backcheck leathers, only if it has been overplayed or abused.Īnd in any case, I can't envision the pinblock, strings or soundboard needing any major work so early on.
Pikabee, what's your concern with the piano being rebuilt?
