Any tips? I want to take the keys out to dust them thoroughly. We have an upright which is old. Do you have any pointers or is it something best left to pros?
@icekat83 I personally have no tips, but my friend Michael Frassinelli, who made the video might. . . visit his YouTube page, his YouTube username is 'mikefraz" and ask him your questions. Good luck.
When you think of all the good quality aged wood, scrap iron and brass, and ivory key tops in the average old piano, there must be some scrap value there....
@wks1978 not much, man. I did it on a very similar piano. couldn't have been more than ten bucks. The brass was two bucks. Iron goes for 3 cents a pound. The wood? yeah, not bad. Sorta useful, I guess. But so is plywood, which doesn't split as easily.
