Seek Ampico Mechanism
By Dave Rodgers

Hi,  I got this letter today and would like you to post it in the MMD.
I don't know if Dave is a member so it would be best to contact him
through the address he lists.

Musically,
John A. Tuttle

John,  Thanks for the critter info.  I just picked up a Chickering Ampico
today.  I am a piano rebuilder and player rebuilder.  I am now in search
of an Ampico mechanism that is looking for a new home.

The piano is very nice and solid.  It will be great once rebuilt but
somebody (as often happens) removed the player mechanism (tray and all)
when it wore out.  I, therefore, need a complete mechanism.

I want one that is rebuildable but not one that is already rebuilt.  I
can do that part myself.  And I'm sure you're aware of how close profit
margins can get when working with player pianos, so I need to spend as
little money as possible getting this unit rebuilt.

If you have one or think you may "know somebody who knows somebody"
please contact me at RodgersServices@Juno.com.  Thanks for your time!
