There are a couple of steps to follow so that you can find the best used or vintage piano for your family. Piano Tom has narrowed these steps into four areas:
First:
Realize the value in buying a used piano. Used pianos in good condition can operate as well as new and last many years. When you purchase a used piano, you won't lose value from depreciation.
Second:
Know the sizes and models of pianos. They differ in height but the footprint is about the same for uprights. The width of grands is approximately the same as uprights.
