ive seen a few pianos in charity shops.
i never lived in a flat long enough to justify the hassle of getting one.

Yes - I looked a few free ones - but cosmetically they were all quite knackered or just not to my taste

the john smithson stood out as soon as i went in the shop

it was fun to get it home, clean out all the dust and polish it up

its got quite a mellow sound - not too clangy and the key action is fine

needs a slight tune up - but is good enough to play

+ look at how well it goes with my floor boards

looks brilliant! the stand is a nice piece of engineering as well
my gf got a phazer, but the tone is quite clangy and resonant
every home should have one!
