As we are moving to a new house without room for our magnificent player piano (popularly known as a pianola) we wonder if anybody local would like to buy it.
It was built in Germany in 1923 by Ibach & Sohn, a premium brand. As soon as I purchased it, in 1985, I had it fully refurbished by a pianola company in London and it remains in good condition.
My piano tuner in London thought it was a lovely instrument with a good tone, virtually as good as a small grand piano. It comes complete
with around 200 mostly classical piano rolls.I can put you in touch with a man who specialises in pianola maintenance and who used to look after it for me when I lived in Leicestershire. Offers please?
Inspection welcome at Fernlea House. Call Keith on 01335 390500 or 01684 576109



Hello. I have been looking for a pianola for a while, but living in an old house, there are some problems with door widths. Can I ask please, how deep is your pianola, at its widest point?
Secondly, how much are you asking for the sale?
Thanks in advance, and look forward to hearing from you.
Adrian.
