OP 1895Knabe Junior Member 1 Joined: Nov 2020 Posts: 1 Sarasota	I have an 1895 Knabe 6'2" parlor grand, tech says I will need new action, and possibly pin block. He doesn't do this type of work. How much as a rough estimate might this cost? Where can I find skilled tech? Would you keep the piano and restore, or shop for a different piano? I specifically wanted an antique piano because the house is Victorian, but I need a serviceable piano...not just a nice looking piece of furniture. The piano has a lovely tone, but dampers not functioning well, if at all, in middle range. Any advice much appreciated! Lyn
