Rebuilding an action on antique Steinway ex-player piano

A customer got a free Steinway explayer grand piano. It is over 100 y.o. and needed a new action badly. Glue joints were failing every other day. It was time to breath new life in the old girl.The piano also suffered from what is known as “verdigris” – meaning the center pin (or pivot point) turns green and makes the flange very stiff. Very common for this vintage piano.A better shot of the VerigrisAlmost done. A lot of man hours but with a Steinway – it is worth it.
