Over the years this instrument has been rebuilt twice by the well respected Bjarne Dahl- in 1972 and then again in 2003 when he introduced new delrin jacks and plectra and lightened the action--a full rebuild.  It's last service was in 2010, and as you can hear and see from recording and photographs, the instrument is in remarkably good condition, and--in fact-- performance ready.  Located in San Francisco, CA. The owner truly wants a quick sale and will accept the  best offer over $7,500.  Please be in touch!
