When is a piano considered TOO old?
A piano is considered too old if it can not be properly tuned – usually because it has warped inside. If the piano you are considering can be tuned and has good, crisp key action, then it isn’t too old. There are some really great pianos in the 80-year old bracket and they still sound wonderful. There are also some 10-year old junkers. The true test is the sound, the keyboard action, and whether it will stay in tune.
