1999 Steinway Model B (6’11”) for Sale, Aspen Music Festival 50th Anniversary Limited Edition

Serial Number: 549904

Description: This distinctive Steinway features a beautiful satin walnut finish, artistic inlays, and special decorative details created for the Aspen anniversary edition. Original documentation and sales records are included.
I am the second owner of the piano. It has always been privately owned and has never been used in a school, institutional, or commercial setting. It has been owned and played by a professional pianist, professionally maintained, and regularly tuned.
The piano is in excellent playing condition. There is some localized sun fading to the finish on one side and a portion of the lid. This is cosmetic only and does not affect the instrument. Depending on placement, the fading on the side can be largely out of view, while the area on the lid is normally concealed by the folded-back portion of the lid.
The piano is currently located in Seattle and is being offered for sale due to my relocation to Europe. Serious inquiries, private viewings, and independent technician inspections are welcome.

Asking price: $64,800. Reasonable offers considered.

Detailed photos below.

Please, help find a home for this pump organ!  It is free if you will haul it.

It is a 1908 Farrand Company Detroit, Michigan pump organ. The upper part comes off. So it is in 2 pieces.  Not unlike moving an upright piano and a bookcase.

I was told it was used originally in a church. The hymnal from 1940 that was tucked inside it is stamped Christ Church 1305 E 47th Seattle 5, Wash.  

It was last refurbished early '90s.  Still plays but needs work to reach full potential. 

It has a squeaky  pedal which  caused me to seek tutorials online.  There are great ones.  This would be a satisfying and doable project for someone handier and maybe younger than me, even non- musician DIYers.  As for the squeaky pedal, do not use oil of any kind! It would ruin it. The instrument is all wood, fabric and leather inside.  Carbon powder or silica (tutorial said) for the sqeak. 

Currently located in North Seattle.
