Here is the “after” on the Sherman Clay Upright. This piano is beautiful! We never tire of bringing these gorgeous pieces of art back to life. This belongs to a customer of ours. The outside is Rosewood and we completely refinished it. Other cosmetics done are the original pedals are re-plated and the key tops have also been replaced
The majority of the work done on this piano is on the inside. It includes all new treble and bass strings, new pins, dampers, hammers, shanks, hammer buts and bridle straps, and felt throughout. The cast iron plate is refinished as well and the cracks that were in the soundboard are all shimmed up. The bottom panel is all repaired now too. We worked on this piano for 8 months straight in the shop and the many hours have paid off.
Here are some pictures of the progress along the way.
