FS: Chickering Ex-Ampico Grand Parts
By Spencer Chase

I have a Chickering that was formerly an Ampico B from about 1928?
It is about 5'4".  It has new strings and hammers, etc., but no one
wants it as a piano.  I need the space it is taking up for other things
and plan to destroy it because it is too much trouble to find a home
for it.

I will be removing the soundboard so it can be used to make guitar
tops.  Everything else will be buried or burned.  I put very expensive
bass strings on it a few years ago but I doubt they can be salvaged.
I will try if someone wants them and will pay a little for the effort
or removing them.

If anyone needs parts such as action parts I will give them away for
shipping cost.  I want to get rid of this ASAP.
