 |
|
I recently acquired this piano, and I am in the process of having the action restored. The case is in fairly good condition. I would like to know how old this piano is, and how common this type is. I believe the serial number is 866. I found what I believe to be the serial number inside the back of the piano. The number is 116688. Hopefully, someone can tell me something about it.

A serial number is useful to have when trying to date a piano Take of the bottom panel off and you will find it stamped in the sound board.
Take a look at

Eavestaff made a number of different minipianos, so without more details, it's difficult to say any more. Press www below, and press Numbers.

If it is a Eavestaff Mini Piano it will be a 6 digit number stamped on the sound board Eavestaff made a few models but the Sn were stamped on the soundboard

The serial number on the Eavestaff Pianette mini piano is 116688. Still looking for someone who can tell me it's age and something about it.
