1974 Currier spinet
$1295
This is your basic beginner's piano. Spinets are compact pianos, usually around 36" high. Due to the design of their action mechanism they have a light touch, and are thus considered good for learning one's way around Middle C (year zero) all the way up to juvenile Baroque music (year three). At that level of study, finger stamina and control become an issue and a spinet is appreciated by the student but frowned upon by the teacher. After year three, a student should move up from a spinet to something with greater keyweight and tonal scope ($$$).
This Currier spinet has the advantage of a beautiful new tung oil/varnish finish, which will draw the eye before anything else in the piano's room, and rebushed key mortises (no sloppy side-to-side motion of the keys due to wear). It has been fully regulated and pitch-stabilized, an excellent value.
