If you went to American schools from the 1970s to the present, you likely would have seen pianos like this in classrooms, choir rooms, band rooms, and practice rooms. Manufactured in Yamaha’s former factory in Thomaston, GA, this model was built with reinforced toe blocks and 8 rubber casters to be tough and mobile in institutional environments. Luckily, they were also sold to the public, so you didn’t have to be a school to get one. The presence of the original factory owner’s manual and key to the fallboard and top lid locks,  as well as the absence of wear on this piano’s internal parts, indicates that this was someone’s barely used and well-cared-for home piano. The price we are asking for this very capable piano would be barely enough to buy you the lowliest new “starter” piano at a new piano store. If value is your goal, then give this piano a serious look. Regardless of what piano you choose, or how much you spend, your money always goes much further in our world of fine, used pianos than in the overpriced world of new pianos. As always, our price includes our standard 10-year warranty and lifetime trade-up guarantee, so if you EVER want to upgrade, you will only need to pay the difference. A great first piano for you or your kids to learn on. Why buy new??
